On breeding farms in Bashkiria, the average milk yield per cow for nine months since the beginning of the year reached almost 7 thousand kg - 14% more than in January- September 2022. The Ministry of Agriculture of the Republic reported this.

According to the department, today in the republic, 40.5 thousand breeding cows are in 53 breeding enterprises. Their number has increased by 10% compared to last year.

This year alone, agricultural producers purchased 2.8 thousand highly productive cows at a total cost of 456 million rubles.

This year, the limit of funds for reimbursement of costs for these purposes is more than 220 million rubles, and almost the entire amount of funds has already been delivered to farmers,” the Ministry of Agriculture commented.
