The authors analyze the dynamics of the Belarusian dairy sector development within a period from 2016 to 2020 being one of the major internal and external market suppliers of milk and dairy products. Since 2011, per capita growth has reached 141 kg. Export opportunities are expanding as well. It is noted that provision of milk in this period has been stable, with the gross production reaching 7765 thousand tons of milk by 2020, or 828 kg per capita. With its share of 38,8 to 43,8% in 2016–2020, milk and dairy products were playing a leading role in the agricultural produce export ratio. The number of dairy cattle in the republic amounts to 1485 heads, as of 1st January 2021. National dairy facilities and milk industry capacities in general are being gradually renovated and subjected to technological improvements, which helps with increasing the output ration of the “extra” class milk. The industry’s needs in highly productive dairy cattle and pedigree livestock for export are well secured on account of 32 cattle breeding farms and 6 genetic selection centers. Dairy industry was given specific targets set out in the five-year program for a 2016–2020 period. During the National Programme implementation with regards to the dairy sector development, the goals set by the programme have been achieved by 90,4%.

Because of the increasing trend in globalization in dairy farming resulting in joining and taking over some companies with the aim of rationalization of production and realizing greater market participation, it seems quite real to expect such a trend to appear in our country as well. After the process of privatization had been realized a significant part of Montenegrin economy fell into the hands of private owners. In such conditions it can be expected that efficiency and competitiveness of some producers of milk and dairy products in the Republic of Montenegro will be increased, since in previous period this industry was characterized by insufficient exploitation of already existing capacities for milk processing while the quality of milk was considerably under the standards prescribed by the European Union. Depending on the dynamics of entering Montenegro into international economy the national dairy industry must be ready to face the challenge which will certainly be imposed on it. The object of this paper was to try to find the answers to the two questions. First where we are now and where we will be in the next five years in order to improve the competitive potential of domestic dairy farming.

Staphylococci are one of the causes of food poisoning in many countries of the world. Intoxication occurs due to staphylococcal exotoxins entering the human body. One of the main sources of staphylococcal toxins is milk and dairy products contaminated with pathogenic staphylococci. Staphylococcus aureus has the greatest sanitary and hygienic importance. In 2016–2018 168 samples of ready-to-eat dairy products were tested for Staphylococcus aureus in the Food Safety Laboratory of the FGBI “ARRIAH” in the Republic of Crimea. The tests were performed according to GOST 30347-2016 “Milk and dairy products. Methods of Staphylococcus aureus detection”. Biochemical properties of the recovered isolates were studied using Vitek 2 Compact analyzer. It was established that the following groups of products are contaminated with Staphylococcus aureus to the greatest extent: butter (20%), sour cream (9.09%), curd and curd products (4.55%), pasteurized milk in the consumer packaging (4.35%). The basic biological characteristics of the isolates have been studied and their antimicrobial resistance has been determined. All the isolated Staphylococcus aureus cultures demonstrated a 100% sensitivity to benzylpenicillin, oxacillin, imipenem, ticarcillin, meropenem, ciprofl oxacin, ofl oxacin, gentamicin, amikacin, doxycycline, tetracycline, rifampin, chloramphenicol, cefotaxime, ceftriaxone, trimethoprim and were 100% resistant to enrofl oxacin. Resistance to streptomycin was determined in 28.6% of isolates, and 14.3% of isolates were resistant to vancomycin. Methicillin-resistant staphylococci were not detected among the bacteria.

Introduction. Prospects for dairy farming from Ukraine's accession to the WTO will be formed under the influence of: implementation of WTO agreements governing the production of milk and dairy products and trade; conditions of Ukraine's membership in the WTO and concluded agreements; the current state of dairy farming and the domestic market of milk and dairy products, especially the level of competitiveness of national producers. Methods. The following methods and techniques were used to implement the tasks set in the study: monographic method – in studying the experience of countries around the world on the formation of trends in livestock, institutions and substantiation of forms and methods of state regulation of the industry in them; method of generalization – in the process of determining the substantive characteristics of economic categories and interpretations of the theoretical apparatus of the study; abstract and logical, constructive methods – during the development of directions for improving state support for the development of dairy farming. Results. Despite certain problems of harmonization of domestic legislation on milk quality to European requirements, there is a problem of developing technical regulations “Raw milk”. We believe that the technical regulations should define mandatory requirements for raw milk and technological processes of its production. The requirements of the proposed Regulation are mandatory for all economic entities engaged in the production, procurement, storage, transportation, sale and disposal of milk, regardless of ownership and subordination. Discussion. Prospects for the revival of dairy farming lie in the development of state and regional support measures, including the introduction of a mechanism for subsidies for the growth of dairy and beef cows, the introduction of grant support for family farms and the implementation of state control measures for high-quality milk production. Keywords: dairy cattle breeding, agricultural enterprise, WTO, state support, technical regulations.

The production sectors and markets of the dairy and grape-wine sectors are of great strategic importance not only for the sustainable and balanced functioning of the entire consumer segment, but also for ensuring the food and national security of our country at the proper level. At the beginning of the study, an analysis of the development of domestic dairy production in historical retrospect was carried out. Further, a multifactorial assessment of the main problems and risk situations inherent in modern dairy production was carried out. In particular, it was found that today one of the key constraining factors for the sustainable development of dairy cattle breeding in the Russian Federation is the lack of a clear organization and effective work in the field of reproductive and breeding farming. They also identified internal reasons that hinder the development of domestic dairy farming and identified strategic directions in the context of the organization of high-tech enterprises in the field of dairy cattle breeding. Further, the assessment of the milk and dairy products market itself was carried out (the dynamics of production and consumption, the balance of imports and exports, the level of self-sufficiency, prices, main producers, the structure of production by categories of farms). In addition, the issue related to the loss of milk in the areas of production and consumption was worked out. The key factors that will influence the development of the domestic industry market in the short term are identified. The assessment of the world market of milk and dairy products (production volumes, consumption, market leaders, strategic goals, tasks and development scenarios in the long term) was carried out. The monitoring of the grape and wine sector included the following estimated parameters (the volume of grape harvest, the area of vineyard planting, sales of wine products, the main problems and factors constraining sustainable development). In particular, special attention was paid to the problem of illegal use of imported wine material. In conclusion, a set of state initiative solutions was proposed in order to give a stable trend to the development of the domestic wine industry.

Since the 1990s of the 20th century, the Slovak dairy industry has undergone many significant changes which have been related to the reduction of the herds of cattle and milk cows, the decrease of quantity of milked milk, low purchase prices of milk, the decline of a great number of milk producers and processors. The consumption of cow´s milk and dairy products in Slovakia is very low in comparison with the countries of the European Union (about 320 kg), Europe (293 kg), the Czech Republic (280 kg), and the rest of the world. It varies around 170 kg per capita per year, which is also considerably lower consumption than the dose of 220 – 240 kg per capita per year recommended by doctors. Since 1990 the production and consumption of dairy products and cheeses have decreased significantly. In Slovakia, the consumption is twice even three times less than in the developed countries of Europe. The reason for this situation is the behavior of a consumer and the factors having an impact on the consumption of cow`s milk and dairy products. The objective of the paper is to indicate the impact of the personal consumers` characteristics on the purchasing decisions on the market of the products of cow`s milk origin, based on the processed answers of the respondents participating in the questionnaire survey. The primary data were obtained via the questionnaire survey, which was conducted with 786 respondents. The questionnaire consisted of four parts – Eysenck`s personality test, the questions targeted at the detection of factors influencing the consumers` purchasing behavior and decision making, the questions related to expressing opinions about cow`s milk and dairy products, and the classification questions providing the information about the respondents. The data were processed by the methods of quantitative and qualitative statistics – Chi-square statistic χ2 test of square contingency, Chi-square χ2 goodness of fit test, two proportion test, Kolmogorov-Smirnov test, the test of hypotheses of relative proportion.

The Commonwealth Caribbean countries imported approximately 55 million metric tonnes of milk and dairy products in 1973 and based on this level of imports a target of 194 million metric tonnes of milk and dairy products has been set to take into account the projected demand to 1980. In order to achieve this target, it is estimated by the Caricom Regional Livestock Complex that 91 000 more dairy cows will be required and also about 63 000 ha more pastures will be needed. The Region may not be able to sustain such a high cattle population on the existing and additional pasture lands and consequently there is a great need to intensify dairy cattle production. Intensive milk production normally involves the use of well managed, heavily fertilized pastures, together with liberal use of concentrate feeds, in order to achieve and maintain a high level of output.

The article examines the problem of fresh water, since in terms of water supply from its own resources per capita and per 1 km2, the republic is 8 times behind Georgia, 2 times behind Armenia. Significant water consumption in Azerbaijan is caused by its arid territory with a predominance of active temperature and a lack of precipitation, which leads to intensive irrigation of crops. At the same time, artificial irrigation is used on 70% of the cultivated land.
