Za trzy dni niemieckie mleczarnie utoną w mleku. Już miliard euro strat!

During yesterday’s debate at the Grüne Woche fair in Berlin, Director general Hochwald Milch eG Peter Manderfeld warned, that German exports of milk products have stuck at the mart point, a since the restrictions on exports of milk products, the German milk market will collapse in a few days – read in Agrarheute.

Certificates withheld

As argued by a representative of the industry, in some regions the authorities refuse to issue necessary veterinary certificates. In result, milk cannot be processed within three to four days.

-If this problem is not solved quickly, in a few days we will no longer be able to collect and process milk farmers – alerts Manderfeld. -Then there will no longer be just a speech about the collapse of milk prices, but also about thousands tons of quickly perishable raw material, because milk after just will not be suitable for processing.

Manderfeld mentioned, that about 40 percent of German milk production is usually exported, mostly to third countries.

Billion-dollar losses on milk and meat

Director general of German Raiffeisen (DRV) Jörg Migende estimated from the countries, that the loss sales of the German meat and dairy industry caused by the outbreak of flu is already over 1 billion euros.

As stated, imports of meat and dairy products from Germany have restricted not only some third countries. Also in some countries the EU veterinary and sanitary regulations are according to Migende “over interpreted” and there is a visible “reluctance” to purchase German products. Migende reminded, that in the EU the rule of regionalization and there is no reason to restrict import products from the closed zone.

He stressed the importance of discussions and ad hoc political negotiations with importing countries, that all purchase decisions be made only based on scientific facts, and not emotions. He gave there an example of Great Britain, which recently opened its market for pasteurized milk from Germany.

Exports in decline

However, there is still one in the Great Britain there is a ban on imports of cattle, hogs, ovine and raw meat from Germany. A similar ban has been announced by South Korea and Mexico, a in their following probably other countries.

With a billion euros, which to this time we have generated in third countries from exports of beef, pork and the relevant .products, per Great Britain accounts for nearly half of that value – confessed in an interview for rbb24 Inforadio, Steffen Reiter, director general of the Meat Industry (VDF).

President of the German Farmers Union Joachim Rukwied alerted that had been taken yesterday at Grüne Woche, that the total yearly volume of meat and milk exports to Great Britain is as much as 850 million euros.

Catastrophe for breeders and processors

According to director general of the German Food Industry Association Christoph Menhoff, flu is a catastrophe for the whole food industry because of export restrictions.

-The volume of these exports is about 2.4 billion euros per year – told Menhoff to portal tagesschau.de. -The affected are not only farmers, but also processors and those. Trucks with meat have already been in Calais, because no can  already deliver meat to Great Britain. The situation is dramatic – uboils the head of the industry union.

In tragic situation have also breeders of the three. As reports by portal RBB, farmers cannot sell fattenants at the normal rate, so pigs are at this time full of overgrown pigs.

British Council ds. Agriculture and Horticulture informed this week, that from January to October 2024 year Great Britain imported from Germany pork of a value of 448 million pounds, a import of the meat in the same period is valued at 283 million pounds – reports Reuters.

The industry has called for help

Authorities of Brandenburg where the epidemic has erupted, that the affected farmers will receive compensation, but at the same time expect support from the federal government and EU. This issue has already been discussed at a meeting of the agriculture committee in the Bundestag, but concrete announcements on the issue have been missing.

As reported by Agrarheute, support for all agricultural enterprises affected by flu has been offered by what Agrarische Rentenbank, which has launched the “Protection Liquidity” program and offers low-cost loans to farmers for 4, 6 or 10 years.

Not that panic?

New Commissioner Christophe Hansen also questioned yesterday at the Berlin fair farmers about actions in the relationship with flu in Germany. Hansen guarded Germans against submission to panic and submission to emotions. He also stated that in the EU the principle of regionality,

if it came too import products from countries affected with flu. This however – -as follows from

statements by heads of German branch organizations – on not much relevant to the current situation

for farmers and processors.

The spokesman of the European Commission said on Thursday, that the Commission is in constant contact

with German authorities, a their efforts to stop the epidemic will enable the principle of regionalization –
