S liter of fresh milk should be able to cover the costs of three kilograms of feed, says livestock breeder from Skalishte Remzi Yusein, who was a technologist back in the day. According to him, the purchase price of the milk is insultingly low, but with him the problem is not that big – they take it for BGN 1.07. He himself has an accredited farm, with aggregates, his milk is one centimeter of yellow cream, we made sure a team of BNR-Kardzhali on the spot.
Ramsay is retired, reduced cows from 30 to 15, and it will last, but many young people will throw it all away. And they do. And the animals are not to blame, they look with their sad eyes, the native of Rodop spoke with pain.
For one kilogram of cheese, 5 liters of milk are needed and its real price with the profit together is ten BGN.
“The real price of milk should be BGN 1.50-1.60. This was a standard back in the days of communism, so you could make a profit. And in order to survive, at least it should be double, 72 cents is the yoke, it should be BGN 1.42”
“Everyone reduced /cows, ed./ already. This morning with a boy, we went to the municipality for some properties, he shouts “Dad, I will sell them, he shouts. I will remove them, I will not restore them”.
“….I am already near retirement age, 62-3 years…what to say. Another one-two-three years we will push until….”
Rezmi Yusein is in debt – over BGN 10,000. “I had some money, savings from Israel, I made a farm, a categorized farm, a new building I made, however, I neglected it. What’s the point of stomping around in one place when you have no profit…”
“I want one day these great rulers, to stand by me, just sit and look at me, and finally they take the money and they settle down, let’s see “Where is Kiro on rent?”
The breeder gets angry, that he has to pay more taxes. “I can’t leave the animals….I’m not that kind of person at all….These poor animals, they look at you with their eyes, they want to eat. They are not to blame… But at the same time, the phones are ringing…”
Five liters of milk makes 1 kg of quality cheese, says Ramsey. And in the store it costs 18-19 BGN. “Don’t those above have a crotch control them a little, what’s going on here?”
