Dairy farmer associations seek urgent protection measures for domestic milk production in BiH
Four dairy farmer associations representing nearly 70 percent of BiH's raw milk production asked institutions in late September to urgently protect domestic output and curb imports, warning that farms are closing and processors plan further price cuts; associations report over 30 farms in Republika Srpska have stopped production and two large farms in Zivinice have closed, while the Federation farmers' association also cites a prolonged drought worsening conditions.
