Factory "Sheksninskaya" and "Cherepovets Broiler", are part of a group of enterprises of agro-industrial company CSO constantly fever.

According to head of the Department of Agriculture , Food Supply and Trade of the Vologda region, Nikolai Anischenko , poor management on the part of the owner actually led businesses to the threat of a full stop production. Given their importance in ensuring food security in the region , the authorities have taken all necessary measures to safeguard poultry . Operative management was entrusted to the " center of Vologda poultry " because in the authorized capital of the Company has an interest in the region , in addition , the organization has experience in the poultry industry and the necessary economic ties , particularly suppliers of feed . In 2013, three poultry farms have provided financial support, which was not planned .

- But an analysis of the current situation shows that the stabilization period the production of poultry coincided with the general crisis in the industry due to the entry of Russia into the WTO. This resulted in an increase in imports of poultry from the fourth quarter of 2012 and a decrease in sales prices of poultry meat. In addition, the decrease in grain yield due to weather conditions, increased costs for the purchase of grain in the half, which , in turn , led to increased production costs. This situation is the main reason for the formation of the negative financial result on virtually all Russian enterprises specializing in poultry meat , - says the head of the department .

enterprise managers said that in spite of everything still working , do not reduce the stock of chickens. Even built a new plant in Sheksna slaughter poultry, having spent about 200 million rubles. However, to cope with the critical situation could not .

Currently, due to the current amount of poultry factory farms are not able to pay for feed and energy, and the " center of Vologda Poultry " does not have the ability to acquire more debt grain and feed additives for the manufacture of animal feed . Therefore, since the end of June 2013 reduced live weight of broilers produced for slaughter , leading to further deterioration of the situation in which it is impossible not only to feed the bird , but also timely payment of wages .

Therefore, it was decided to suspend one of the factories , the concentration of broiler meat production on the platform " Sheksninsky broiler " redistribution of functions slaughter and processing of poultry meat between the two companies. As the authorities say , the measure is temporary. If funding will resume during the entire production process for growing birds , and this 38-42 days , the production of poultry meat will restore .
