PRIORITY TO DAIRY CATTLE BREEDING IS AN IMPORTANT TASK OF THE REGIONAL MUNICIPAL EDUCATION
The article deals with the production and consumption of milk products in the municipalities of the Bryansk region for almost sixty years. Differences between municipalities in providing the local population with dairy products are revealed, negative consequences are shown, and measures to overcome them are determined. Contradictions of effective development of dairy cattle breeding, providing the population of municipalities with the main types of dairy products in the course ofpolicy planning and development of monopolies, are revealed. Their enrichment through the price mechanism was the main reason for the destruction of the technical and social potential of agricultural enterprises, a deep decline in milk production and the resulting differentiation of municipalities in the provision ofpopula-tion with dairy products. There were significant flows of milk and dairy products to the municipalities of the region organized by large commercial businesses, which hindered the development of small and medium-sized businesses in rural areas and the integrated use of rural resources. The issues of export-import policy of the Bryansk region and the possibility of using social and economic levers to regulate the market of dairy products that affect their consumption by the population are discussed.
