Anatoly Losev: we expect an increase in demand for dairy products with long shelf life
"For our consumer, inflation will hit most product categories. In the next six months, it will inevitably lead to a decrease in demand. The risks of coronavirus are serious, but no one has sufficiently assessed them yet. We do not know how events will develop – and in the most negative scenario, consumption, as well as demand, will fall sharply, and this will be extremely harmful, including for our industry", Anatoly Losev said.
The expert also predicts that next year will bring difficulties in obtaining state support – it will be reduced.
"From the point of view of livestock support, we hope that this year it will remain at the stated level. Next year, most likely, we will see a reduction in state support", Anatoly Losev added.
We will remind, earlier The DairyNews reported with reference to the research of the Bank “Otkrytie” that due to the threat of coronavirus, Russians began to form long-term stocks of products.
