Following the severe recession in the first two months of 2013 it looks like Russia’s feed production sector is finally starting to recover with an increase of 9% in production in March.
In March 2013 it was produced 1.81 million tonnes of feed, which is about 150,000 tonnes more than in February according to the analytical agency SoyaNews.
In December 2012 feed production hit a record with 1.86 million tonnes. It is expected that in the near future, this record may be surpassed.
