Dagestan to increase agricultural production in response to food import banAccording to the Deputy Prime Minister of the Republic of Dagestan, Sharip Sharipov, the ban on the import of agricultural products to the Russian Federation from the EU will remove barriers that previously did not allow domestic producers to expand their production. Lacking markets, local producers could not widely present their products."One of the limiting factors of production capacity was problems with sales: subsidized imported products with good marketing and attractive packaging firmly stuck on the shelves of our stores, while better and more environmentally-friendly Russian food products could not get there," RIA Dagestan quotes him.
