This Sunday, the agricultural workers were celebrating their professional holiday. The President congratulated the farmers of the country.
We have enough grain and vegetables, we also have meat and milk. It is very important against the background of food shortages in many regions. The main thing is that Belarus is fully provided with food. There are enough products for export as well. The current agrarian season was one of the toughest ones in the sovereign history of the country. The industry was affected by price hikes for fertilizers and energy, the financial and political turbulence. The world demand and prices are benefiting the Belarusians: this year they have already earned more than $4,5 billion on food supplies. By the end of the year the country will make 6 billion, and 7 billion is possible as well.
Alexander Subbotin, Deputy Prime Minister of Belarus:
We have tapped the markets in 116 countries and we keep them confidently. Even despite the tough and difficult relations with the EU, we are adding exports there. They protect their market very strongly by not letting our dairy, cheeses, but some of our individual food lines, especially technical casein for their production, are bought at an intensive rate.
