From January-April 2020, the production of pigs in agricultural organizations amounted to 1.5 million tons (live weight slaughter), which is 11.3% or 150,000 tons more than the same period last year.
The main growth was attributed to agricultural producers of Kursk, Tambov, Belgorod, Voronezh, Pskov, Orel regions, Republics of Bashkortostan and Mordovia.
