Former AKP Deputy and former PANKOBIRLIK Chairman Recep Konuk criticized the milk price policy on his social media account.
Konuk stated that milk production decreased by 20-25 percent.
"In order to take precautions, it is no longer necessary to make deep analyzes and think. Just look and see," Konuk said.
The post shared by the guest with the note "Notes to myself" is as follows:
"According to TZOB President Bayraktar, 1 million dairy cows were slaughtered, and according to TUSEDAD President Solakoğlu, 1.7 million dairy cows were slaughtered. It is stated that 2,000 producers in Konya have liquidated their barns. It is estimated that our milk production has decreased by 20-25 percent. As milk decreased, milk collectors began to intercept each other's tankers. The 7.5 TL price of USK (National Dairy Council) remained on paper. The result of stubbornness with the mathematics of the job so that the shelf prices do not increase, is dragging our country to a lack of milk and dairy products. If our milk decreases, our cheese, yoghurt and butter will also decrease. As the measure is delayed, the cost of reaching the old production level again and the consumer's access to milk and milk production increases. A realistic raw milk premium is the obvious solution without increasing shelf prices. To reduce the cost of feed and feed inputs. Let the mind step in to save our remaining dairy cows, so that our milk is not cut off."
