REVIEW OF DAIRY SECTOR IN POLAND Introduction
Roczniki Akademii Rolniczej w Poznaniu – CCCLXVII (2005) MICHAŁ SZNAJDER, OLGA KRUSIŃSKA, ANNA WIELICKA REVIEW OF DAIRY SECTOR IN POLAND From Department of Food Management Economics of The August Cieszkowski Agricultural University of Poznań ABSTRACT. The paper presents general situation in Polish dairy. The sector thrives on concentration in milk production. Dairy farms increase herd-size, some ineffective dairy farms go out of business as milk production requires vast investments due to high hygiene standards and economies of scale. Changes result in rising effectiveness as milk yield grows, and on farm use decreases. After collapse in 1989 and downward trend in 90’s production of basic products like milk, butter and fermented drinks increases. Situation on goods export market is highly affected by global prices. However the development of the production depends on milk quota, which will limit Polish dairy in future. Overall consumption is declining. On the upward trend is only cheese. These tendencies are consistent with the changes in Western Europe. Key words: dairy, dairy industry, dairy farming, consumption, dairy products Introduction Being involved in daily problems of dairy industry we often overlook some general trends and broader aspects of changes, which would help us better understand individual decisions of farmers, consumers and processors in the past and in the future (Sznajder et al. 1998). Purpose of this paper is to present the general situation of dairy industry, consumption and define some prospects for them. Review is divided into three following sections: 1) dairy farms and dairy cows, 2) production and prices, 3) consumption. The data were collected from Central Statistical Office (Roczniki... 1950-2004). Rocz. AR Pozn. CCCLXVII, Ekon. 4: 113-125 © Wydawnictwo Akademii Rolniczej im. Augusta Cieszkowskiego w Poznaniu, Poznań 2005 PL ISSN 1731-0261 114 M. Sznajder, O. Krusińska, A. Wielicka Dairy farms and dairy cows Decline in overall farm numbers by 4% as an effect of shrinking profitability in small entities is observed. More serious drop by 33% appears in dairy farms as a result of rising cost of production: high-cost equipment and breeding connected with acute hygiene standards (Jażdżewski 2001). A dairy farm, which makes profit, is no longer for everybody – it needs significant investments. Non dairy farms thrive- growth in numbers by 17% (Fig. 1).

In comparison with year 1995 prices nearly doubled (95% growth), and probable scenario for 2005 was 100 PLN/hl and even more (Fig. 6).

Gate milk price offered to farms between 1971-1989 excelled retail price, which was regulated to be stable from 1971 to 1981. You were allowed to produce as much as you could – state guaranteed sales. Since 1989 we have accepted liberalized economy and prices are at mercy of State Agencies (ARR) and open market (Fig. 7). % 450 farm gate price (retail price = 100%) cena skupu (cena detaliczna = 100%) 400 350 300 retail price – cena detaliczna 250 200 150 100 50 0 1953 1958 1963 1968 1973 1978 1983 1988 1993 1998 2003 Years – Lata Fig. 7. Farm gate price vs retail price (retail price = 100%) (based on data from CSO) Ryc. 7. Relacja ceny skupu do ceny detalicznej (cena detaliczna = 100%) (na podstawie danych GUS) We observe stable ratio of farm gate and retail milk price – about 55%. Visible peaks are caused by enormous increase in farm gate prices as a result of transient prosperity in dairy industry (Fig. 8). Breakthrough in milk production and cow numbers in 1989 caused by falling profitability (no guaranteed prices and markets) and huge imports from Western countries, which additionally subsidized exporters limited growth in recent years. Year 2003 started recovery in the sector (Fig. 9). Shift in agricultural production and consumer preferences resulted in a sudden drop of fluid milk production in 1989. Slow recovery is visible in recent years (Fig. 10). Future depends on domestic consumption, which will not elevate if the state or dairy industry does not finance educational campaigns. The available data reflect the change in consumer habits. Since 2000 we have increased yoghurt consumption by 37%. Marketing and wider, tasty assortment as well as recommendation from food scientists made us eat and drink more fermented products (Fig. 11). Butter production got through the same process as milk production with one heavier storm in the 90’s, when margarine lobby profited from information about harmful action of butter fat on blood tension (Seremak-Bulge et al. 2003). Now the production grows slowly as country demand rises (Fig. 12). 118 M. Sznajder, O. Krusińska, A.

From 1993 the industry enjoys growing production as an effect of rising popularity, affluence and open markets – EU and Russia. The highest growth is observed in hard cheeses (“industrial types”), which are eagerly used in food service (Fig. 13). 120 M. Sznajder, O. Krusińska, A.

Decease of dairy farm numbers and overall farm numbers – low profitability if no economies to scale. 2. Structural changes in milk production sector are caused by fast growth of large herds and farms which own one cow for a their use. 3. In 2003 there is still a decline in cow stock but increase of milk yield per cow altered decreasing trend in milk production. 4. Steady increase of collected milk ratio connected with attractive prices and production specialization. 5. Production of basic dairy fresh products for local markets declined from 1989 to 2002 with serious collapse in 1999 and 2000 as a result of economic crisis. In latest years opening of foreign markets: EU (Richarts 2004) and Eastern countries and rising dietary conscience of Poles can elevate production but only up to the quota granted by EU. 6. More stable products are slightly affected by changes in domestic demand, but more sensitive to cyclical factors on world market, what is mirrored by temporary fluctuation. 7. Cheese production grows from 1992 thanks to domestic demand and export. 8. Drop in milk drinks (mainly milk) and cream consumption is caused by change of consumption habits and competition from other drinks and plant substitutes. 9. In 2000 a remarkable decline in cheese and butter consumption resulted from incomes reduction. Consumption and growing acceptance for cheeses and butter bounces back in recent years.

TENDENCJE W POLSKIM MLECZARSTWIE Streszczenie Polskie mleczarstwo jako ważna cześć gospodarki żywnościowej jest sektorem, wewnątrz którego w ostatnich latach dokonały się bardzo istotne zmiany. Zaobserwowane tendencje mają charakter długookresowy i będą w najbliższym czasie kształtować oblicze branży. Podstawowymi tendencjami po stronie gospodarstw zajmujących się produkcją mleka są: koncentracja produkcji surowca, wzrastająca wydajność i towarowość. Z kolei w przetwórstwie w latach 1989-2002 obserwowaliśmy tendencję spadkową w większości kategorii i wzrost produkcji od 2003 roku. Jednakże konsumpcja produktów mlecznych wyrażona w ekwiwalencie mleka spada od 1989 roku (z wyjątkiem 1998 roku) i w 2003 roku osiągnęła rekordowo niski poziom 181 l na osobę.
