Ministry Publishes Latest Import Quota Allocations

The Russian Ministry of Economic Development and Trade published the names of companies allocated beef and pork import quota amounts based on their historical records today (March 21). In February, 25 percent of poultry, beef and pork quotas were distributed among historical importers based on Jan.–Sept. 2004 statistics. Today’s allocations — 60 percent of pork and beef quotas and 75 percent of poultry quotas — are based on Jan.–Dec. 2004 import statistics. An auction will allocate the remaining 15 percent of beef and pork quota volumes.

The companies have to apply for quota licenses to the Ministry of Economic Development and Trade before August 1, 2005.

The 16,500 mt chilled beef quota (60 percent of the 27,500 mt total chilled beef quota) is allocated among 24 companies. The 258,000 mt frozen beef quota (60 percent of 430,000 mt) is allocated among 257 companies. The U.S. share of the announced quota in the first and second allocations is 15,045 mt (85 percent of 17,700 mt). Russia currently bans import of U.S. beef, but the quota holders can change their U.S. beef quotas to other supplying countries, according to a Government Resolution issued on March 17.

The 280,440 mt pork quota (60 percent of the 467,400 mt total pork quota) is divided among 333 companies; 116,850 mt (25 percent of the 467,400 mt total pork quota) were allocated in the first allocation to 281 companies.
