Russian
Cheese Producers also get abroad less paid for their cheeses, but prices fell there by 10 percent, slightly less so than for cheese sold in the Netherlands itself. That cheesemakers abroad receive less for their cheese is partly due to the boycott of dairy by Russia. The increased production of dairy products in the Netherlands and falling demand from Asia play a role.
In 2013 the Netherlands exported 233 million for cheese to Russia. That’s 44 percent of the value of all Russia boycotted Dutch foods.
Increase first months, then drop
striking the producer price of cheese increased enough the first months last year across the board. Especially the price received by exporters for their cheese cheese increased significantly. Then plain the increase in price of cheese producers from every quarter to the turning point in the third quarter.
On the domestic market was in September the cheese price lower than a year earlier. The export price followed two months later. The decline is due in part to the boycott of dairy products through Russia, but also the increased production of dairy products in the Netherlands through the abolition of the EU quota and sluggish demand from Asia play a role.
