According to the Ministry of Agriculture, Russia and China are negotiating the supply of Russian meat, including poultry and pork. At the same time, the start to supplies can be given before the end of this year.
«The decision to open the Chinese meat market is a landmark,» told “Russian Newspaper” Dmitry Gordeyev, representative of the National Union of meat processors. «It will allow maintaining the achieved growth rates and expanding guaranteed sales markets in conditions of saturation of domestic demand and declining purchasing activity for some types of products.» In his opinion, Russian manufacturers have more than a real chance to increase their share in such a huge market.
Container transportation of food from Russia to China will receive subsidies. The decision about them was taken by the government. A special program provides for compensation of up to 50 % of actual transportation costs
