According to representatives of the statistical area of the Ministry of Agriculture of the Russian Federation, in the first six months of 2019 in the Ryazan Region, local livestock enterprises put on the market more than two hundred twenty-six thousand four hundred tons of milk.
It is noteworthy that this indicator exceeds the volume of dairy production in the region for the same period of 2018 by almost four percent. For clarity, it should be noted that last year the Ryazan cows produced eight thousand seven hundred tons of milk less.
It is important to emphasize that the main producers of raw milk in the region are agricultural facilities that produced more than one hundred ninety-nine thousand tons of milk from January to May of this year.
It is noteworthy that a year earlier the indicator of agricultural producers was almost five percent (nine thousand three hundred tons) less.
It is important to mention the average productivity of dairy cattle, which since last year has increased by two hundred forty-eight kilograms and amounts to more than three thousand seven hundred twenty-five kilograms of raw materials per year for each cow.
