Romanian milk producers are worried about cheap Hungarian milk
Hungarian milk with a purchase price of less than HUF 150 per liter and a fat content of 4 percent depresses Romanian prices. Local producers can’t really compete with him.
According to Dorin Cojocaru, the president of the professional interest protection representation of Romanian milk processors (APRIL), last year was also difficult for Romanian milk producers, and this year will be the same. The reason for this is that Romania is flooded with cheap milk coming from neighboring countries at dumping prices.
“The next six months will be difficult for consumers, processors and farmers. The market will be very volatile. The price will collapse. A liter of raw material with a 4 percent fat content arrives at the factory’s gate from Hungary for 1.85 lei, and at this price the cost of transportation is also included. Under such circumstances, how could we financially maintain the domestic supply chain?”
