The amount of venison storing in Yamal will be kept on level of the previous year

In Yamal, in spite of the fact that the year was difficult for reindeer herders, it is planned to keep the same amount of meat storing – 2500 tons. Meat will be processed and delivered to consumers in Yamal, Tyumen Oblast, Moscow and Saint Petersburg.

This information was given by the director of the department of agro-industrial complex, trade and foodstuff of Yamal-Nenets Autonomous Okrug Vyacheslav Kucherenko on the press-conference. As he notes, contracts with Germany and Finland stay the same, in spite of the sanctions, which negatively influence on relations with partners.
As Vyacheslav Kucherenko reminds, this year Yamal lost about 90 thousand deer. Only 55 fawns were received from 100 she-reindeer, earlier this index was on the level of 80 fawns. But, according to the observations of the director of the department, the situation is being stabilized. Not very hot summer, small amount of blood-sucking insects, long autumn influence on reindeer favorably. But it will take time to restore the same livestock – 740 thousand animals.
According to the words of Vyacheslav Kucherenko, venison storing will start soon in the new complex in the settlement Nyda. The complex in the settlement Payuta started working in full capacity. The campaign was started in the district of Yuribey. The settlement Seyakha will be involved into the work soon. Designing and beginning of building of the complex in the settlement Gyda is planned for the next year. Purchasing prices for venison will stay on the level of last year: about 150-190 rubles per kilogram.
The director of the department congratulated employees of the agro-industrial complex of Yamal with their professional holiday and wished them for good prospects and enthusiasm.
