The EXPORT of lamb from Dagestan is a hot topic that is of interest to many. Assistant to the HEAD of Dagestan and head of the Export Support Center, Ruslan Abaskuliev, emphasized that only 10% of the total sheep population in the region is sent for export . This statement was made in response to claims by some federal speakers and experts that exports are causing the rise in the cost of lamb in the domestic market.
However, it should be noted that in the total export volume there is also a share of lamb produced not in Dagestan, but exported through Dagestan companies. This means that the share of exports from Dagestan itself is actually even less than 10%. As a percentage, this share is too small to have a significant impact on the pricing policy for MEAT within the country.
In addition, it is worth noting that there is no shortage of lamb in the markets, despite the high demand for it abroad. This suggests that lamb production in Dagestan and other regions is able to satisfy both internal and external demand.
However, despite the insignificant influence of exports on the pricing policy for meat within the country, lamb exports from Dagestan still play an important role for the region. It contributes to the development of the local economy and the creation of new jobs, and also helps to strengthen the image of Dagestan in the international arena.
Thus, we can conclude that the export of lamb from Dagestan is not the main reason for the increase in the cost of meat on the domestic market. However, it has a positive impact on the economy of the region and contributes to its development.
