Romania: Romanian Dairy Products Annual Report 2016
The Romanian dairy sector faced strong competition in 2015 mainly from other European Member States. Commercial sector continued to strengthen despite market challenges, while the backyard sector plunged. The spike in demand from third countries for dairy products and the market measures taken at the EU level alleviated to a certain extent the milk crisis in the second half of 2016. Fluid milk and dairy products consumption is poised to grow in 2016 in case of all types of products.
