Bashkiria farmers are invited to participate in "Tastes of Russia" national competition

The first national competition of regional food brands "Tastes of Russia" has started in Russia. The competition will be the first stage of a whole range of measures to support farm products. The competition's mission is to familiarize consumers with a variety of tastes in Russia and the development potential of regional food brands.

The potential for the development of branding in Bashkortostan is very high - both in terms of national traditions and in its features. The following are considered as republican brands: Bashkir goose, Bashkir cheese, Bashkir kazylyk (horse sausage), Bashkir kumis (mare's milk).
