IMPROVING INTER-FARM RELATIONS IN THE DAIRY SUBCOMPLEX
The subject of the research is aspects of increasing the competitiveness of milk producers. Materials and methods: milk as a strategic product has almost always been used, is and will be in demand among the population. Due to some circumstances, milk production in Russia in general and in the Nizhny Novgorod region in particular, in comparison with the late Soviet times, has almost halved. To correct the current situation in milk production, the state and governments are developing various measures to support this industry. But in our case, we wanted to draw the attention of milk producers to relatively simple and affordable ways to increase efficiency in their industries. Like any production, milk production also starts with technology. Results: the first thing to consider during production is to exclude as much as possible technological errors and miscalculations. You need to start with the simplest things. To organize a stable and high-quality fodder base, not to be mistaken with the choice of livestock breed, to properly organize selection work within the herd. And at the same time, with the development of a kind of basis, you can already work to improve all systems and processes. Conclusions: the article examines those moments where most often there are problems, when corrected, the indicators of the cost of milk production respond with an active decrease. Attention is also drawn to the aspect of material incentives for workers in the industry, on which the entire success of the enterprise ultimately depends.
