Romanian national milk reserve at 1.014 mln tons in 2010 - June 15th 2010
The Romanian national milk reserve will amount to 1.014 million tons in 2010, after 31,181.4 tons or 1% having been added under a draft Government Resolution on setting the national milk reserve levels made public by the Ministry of Agriculture and Rural Development.
Some 613,971.2 tons of the national milk reserve will be distributed to the producers for deliveries to processors and direct sales, namely 86,538 tons for deliveries and 527,433.1 tons for direct sales. The balance represents the total individual quotas that are kept at the producers' disposal in the national reserve for two years.
During the EU accession talks, Romania got the right to produce three million tons of milk a year, of which two million tons were assigned to direct sales and one million tons to deliveries to processors. So far, Romania has never exceeded its national milk quota.
