On September 19, at the weekly operational meeting at the regional state administration with the participation of Volyn Governor Volodymyr Bondar, the situation in the region regarding milk and sugar prices was considered. \n \nIn his report, the head of the main department of agro-industrial development of Volyn, Anatoliy Arshulik, noted that according to the results of 8 months, in terms of milk sales volumes, Volyn ranks 11th in Ukraine. In the Western region, we hold second place, yielding only to Zhytomyr Oblast. The average sale price during the reporting period in the region was 1 hryvnia per liter. By this indicator, Volyn is 14th in Ukraine, while last year it was 20th. As is known, there was a conflict in the region between milk processors and its producers. Given the seriousness of the situation, the authorities constantly monitored all processes in this industry. As a result, a ton of milk in Volyn is paid from 800 to 1000 hryvnias. The most expensive milk is in Ivanychi, Horokhiv, Volodymyr-Volynskyi and Lutsk districts — over 1100 hryvnias per ton. Although there are districts where the price is 850 hryvnias per ton. \n \nSummarizing his report, Mr. Arshulik noted that working in the dairy industry in Volyn is profitable and the villagers are doing everything to ensure this continues. They are also waiting for adequate steps from the state. \n \n
