Deputy Prime Minister Dmitry Patrushev held a meeting of the permanent government anti-epizootic commission. The event was attended by the leadership of the Ministry of Agriculture, the Ministry of Natural Resources, Rosselkhoznadzor, Rospotrebnadzor, other relevant departments, as well as representatives of the regions.
“The President of Russia has set the task for the agro-industrial complex to significantly increase production volumes by 2030. This applies to all areas of the industry, including, of course, livestock farming. According to the plans of the Russian Ministry of Agriculture, meat production should increase to almost 20 million tons in six years. It is planned that milk volumes will exceed 38 million tons. One of the key factors in achieving these indicators is ensuring epizootic well-being. Systematic work is being carried out at all levels today to achieve this. In this way, we ensure food security for our country and increase the export potential of the Russian agro-industrial complex. I would like to separately note that thanks to the activities of Rosselkhoznadzor, including those related to the active implementation of digital control tools, Russia has established one of the world’s best practices for supervisory activities in the field of veterinary well-being,” said Dmitry Patrushev.
The Deputy Prime Minister noted that although the epizootic situation in the world remains difficult in 2025, the situation in Russia is stable. No outbreaks of African swine fever or bird flu have been recorded in the industrial sector.
Dmitry Patrushev emphasized that all preventive measures must be carried out locally in full compliance with veterinary safety requirements.
The meeting also discussed measures to prevent animal diseases in the wild.
Following the event, Dmitry Patrushev ordered that measures to prevent the spread of infections in the regions be strengthened and that control over the movement of animals and products be strengthened on all types of transport.
