Cfandpractice with STOV «AgrofIrma Petrodolynske"

Today, Odesa National Technological University trains specialists in the specialty 204 “Technology of production and processing of animal husbandry products”, which are profiled in the presented industry!!!! High qualification of teachers, close cooperation of two graduate departments with representatives of specialized enterprises and talented students – this is a guarantee of success!!!! So 23 October 2021 year – a working meeting of government representatives was devoted to the development of dairy farming in the Odesa region, farmers, entrepreneurs and scientists on the basis of the agricultural company "Petrodolinske" and the complex "Agrolandia". Breeding and maintenance of cows, milk processing is a long-term and low-profit business, which needs "long" money and cannot do without state support. The European Union invests no less in the development and support of the agro-industrial complex every year 24 billion. euro. Head of Odesa Regional State Administration Serhii Rafailovich Hrynevetskyi noted, that the basis of the development of rural areas is animal husbandry, and livestock and fodder are the basis of animal husbandry development. Unfortunately, the result of the previous years was a significant decrease in the number of animals in Ukraine, and in particular in the Odesa region. So, compared to 1990 During the year, the number of large cattle decreased from 1,9 million. to 147 thousand, birds – with 19 million heads to 2,1 million. in 2020 year. As a result – reduction of consumption by residents of the region, meat from 35 kg to 15,2. Such attention of the authorities to the development of agriculture in our region will improve the supply of residents with necessary and high-quality food products. This whole process requires modern technologies and specialized specialists, in particular in the field of grain technology and compound feed, technologies for the production of meat and meat products, milk and dairy products, etc. For financial support, the state adopted the National Program for the Development of the Dairy Industry, which provides for an increase in the number of cows with 1,7 million heads to 3,0 million, milk production in Ukraine should increase from 6,5 million tons. to – 10 million tons. So there is hope, that in the end the price of milk in Ukraine will become lower, than in EU countries! And this requires professional personnel. Odesa National Technological University has more than 50 years of experience in training specialists for the meat and dairy industry.
