According to the results of last year, a total of 586 thousand tons of meat were imported to Russia from abroad, he said. "Belarus, the Union State, accounts for almost 50 percent of imports of meat of all kinds," Dankvert explained.
The main type of products supplied to the Russian market was poultry meat and offal, which accounted for 232 thousand tons. Beef came in second place (201 thousand tons). In turn, pork supplies to Russia amounted to 1.4 thousand tons. At the same time, the total volume of meat exports from the Russian Federation over the past year reached the level of 649 thousand tons, the head of the department concluded.
