Lyudmila Manitskaya: the greater part of the growth in milk production - falsification

Источник: The DairyNews
As it was noted by Lyudmila Manitskaya, Executive Director of the Dairy Union of Russia, in her speech at the international conference of the EAEU for the production and processing of milk, in Russia today the growth of dairy production is recorded in all directions, but only a few ask why it is so.
"The greater part of growth in the production of dairy products is falsification. Consumers vote with ruble and select based on price. During the crisis, the consumption of milk and dairy products was increasing and now it is not. The price of milk is growing and today we lag behind the standards of the Ministry of health by 30 percent," said Lyudmila Manitskaya, who was quoted by The DairyNews.

According to the expert, today the situation is such that the more products are produced on paper and the less the actual consumption is, the more is self-sufficiency.

"Meanwhile, we observe a reduction in the consumption of dairy products in Russia. In 1991, the rate of consumption was 387 kg per capita per year. In 2015 - 239 kg per capita per year. In 2016 the rate of consumption declined to 234 kg," - said Lyudmila Manitskaya.

We will remind that the event held in Sochi is organized by the Russian Union of dairy industry enterprises.
