A joint agreement was announced today following a three-hour meeting involving the acting Minister of Agriculture, Armend Muja, and representatives from the Kosovar Farmers’ Dairy Association. The meeting concluded with a commitment to resolve several outstanding issues concerning the dairy sector. According to Fidan Krasniqi, a representative of the association, the initial phase of the agreement involves the immediate commencement of fresh milk collection from farmers at the “Vita” dairy farm, effective today.
Krasniqi stated that this initiation marks a temporary, joint understanding between the parties. Furthermore, she expressed optimism that subsequent discussions will address other concerns previously raised by milk producers during recent protests. During the proceedings, Minister Muja reportedly pledged to publish the outcomes of the discussions.
The agreement aims to stabilize the supply chain and improve the working relationship between agricultural producers and the dairy industry stakeholders. The consensus reached underscores an effort to formalize procedures for the sourcing of raw milk. By establishing this initial framework for collection, authorities and producers signal a pathway toward resolving systemic challenges within the agricultural economy.
The focus remains on ensuring fair practices and operational clarity for all participating farmers as the sector moves forward.
