Russian Deputy Prime Minister Dmitry Patrushev gave a number of instructions to agencies to stabilize butter prices in the domestic market. This is reported in a statement by the Cabinet of Ministers following a meeting with the participation of departments, producers and processors of dairy products, as well as representatives of large retail chains.
It was noted at the meeting that imports from a number of countries were activated to stabilize prices.
"However, this should not cancel the task of systematically increasing production. The dairy industry is a socially significant area of the agro–industrial complex. Realizing this, the Government has been providing producers and processors with a whole range of state support measures for several years," D. said.Patrushev.
This includes preferential revolving and investment loans, preferential leasing, and there are measures within the framework of a combined subsidy.
The Deputy Prime Minister also noted that the oil is subject to mandatory labeling. This ensures its full traceability – up to the moment of purchase. This makes it possible to monitor the entire pricing chain.
