The Acting Minister of Agriculture, Forestry, and Rural Development, Armend Muja, has authorized two key decisions intended to enhance transparency, fairness, and sustainability within Kosovo’s dairy sector. The first directive requires the consistent publication of a Reference Milk Price via the National Milk Platform. This established price point will be calculated using comprehensive data that incorporates factors such as production levels, operational costs, import figures, processing expenses, and current market rates.
This mechanism is designed to serve as a standardized guideline for all participants in the sector. Furthermore, the second decision mandates that all relationships throughout the milk supply chain, spanning from the point of production on the farm to the final consumer, must be formalized through mandatory written contracts. These legally binding agreements must clearly outline the terms governing pricing structures, required product quality standards, and established payment schedules.
These measures represent a concerted effort by the minister’s office to formalize and stabilize the market. By implementing transparent pricing benchmarks and requiring contractual agreements across the value chain, the goal is to provide a more predictable and equitable operating environment for producers, processors, and related stakeholders in the agricultural industry.
