C 1 January Rospotrebnadzor lowered the limit of chlorine in the solution for the processing of poultry carcasses with 200 mg per 1 cubic meter to 50 mg. New health standards were adopted in mid 2008, but producers were asked to time out for training.

According to the head of the executive committee of the National Meat Association Sergei Yushin, the majority of Russian enterprises managed to re-by going with a water cooling technology in a more modern (and expensive) air. Now Russia”s enterprises can produce up to 90% of poultry meat without the use of chlorine-containing drugs.

largest exporters of chicken meat to Russia - the Americans - had no time to prepare or do not want to. According to NMA, in 2009 the American chicken meat accounted for about 22% of Russia”s poultry meat market and 79% of imports (in 2009 Russia sold 3.45 million tonnes of poultry meat imported 0.95 million tons).

In 2010, Americans had to put 600 thousand tons (77% of imports), but this whole chicken fell under the ban chlorine: American standards of chlorine several times softer than Russian.

experts disagreed on how the ban would affect the market. If the supply of poultry meat from the United States in the near future will not be resumed, Russia”s market is waiting for the deficit and rising prices, warns the head of the National Meat Association Yushin. By his estimation, the capacity of Russian producers are not enough to cover the needs of the market, and stc8focks of imported chicken meat at the Russian stock enough for 1,5-2 months.

shortages and rising prices will not be objected Galina Bobyleva, CEO Rosptitsesoyuz: in IV quarter because of falling demand and the traditional import growth (up to 40% of the quota is imported at the end of the year) at the warehouses is heavily poultry. In addition, in 2010 Russia”s producers are going to increase production by about 300 thousand tons, reported newsru.
