The benefits of cooperation and opportunities for small- and medium-sized dairy enterprises topped the agenda of the Second Caucasus Dairy Congress held in Georgia’s capital, Tbilisi, today.

The event, supported by the European Union and Georgia’s Ministry of Agriculture, was the latest effort by the European Bank for Reconstruction and Development (EBRD) and the Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations (FAO) to strengthen Georgia’s dairy industry.

Over 200 participants from the Caucasus and Eastern Europe attended the Dairy Congress, including commercial dairy farmers, processors, equipment suppliers, industry experts, and representatives of the Georgian government.
