Andrey Razin: the heads of the districts are personally responsible for ensuring that agricultural investors are doing well
- A lot of what is reflected in the Federal support programs, was initially implemented in the region, - said Andrey Razin.
The Minister stressed that "the heads of districts are personally responsible for ensuring that investors in the agricultural sector are doing well".
- There is a stereotype that there is no agriculture in Moscow region. However, only by gross milk yield in agricultural enterprises (and I believe that these figures are the most correct - excluding smallholders) I can remind that we produced 670 thousand tons of milk in 2018. Percentage of marketability is 95%. Five years ago, we ranked 38th in the country for vegetables grown in greenhouses, now we take the 4th place and strive for the first. As for the production of cheese and cheese products – the region takes the first place in the Central Federal district and the second place in Russia, - said Andrey Razin.
