Terras: kui piirid lähevad kinni, saab meil kanaliha 46 päevaga otsa

Terras: If the borders close, our chicken meat will run out in 46 days

Hendrik Johannes Terras räägib Eesti toidujulgeolekust ja kanakasvatuse probleemidest.

Hendrik Johannes Terras talks about Estonia's food security and the problems in poultry farming.

Terras ütles, et Eesti põllumajandustootjad pakuvad . Meie tootjad on innovatiivsed ja toovad meile lauale , mis aitab meil tervislikult elada. Toidujulgeolek Eestis on heas seisus. Näiteks toodame ligi 300 protsenti rohkem, kui ise vajame. Sama lugu on ka piimanduses, kus me .

Terras said that Estonian agricultural producers offer high-quality food. Our producers are innovative and bring safe food to our tables, which helps us live healthily. Food security in Estonia is in good condition. For example, in grain farming, we produce almost 300 percent more than we need. The same applies to dairy farming, where we export surplus products.

Kanakasvatuses on aga probleeme. Meie tibud tulevad välismaalt, peamiselt Taanist. Kui , saab kanaliha 46 päevaga otsa. Selleks tuleb Eestisse ehitada , et tibusid saaks siin kasvatada.

However, there are problems in poultry farming. Our chicks come from abroad, mainly from Denmark. If the borders close, chicken meat will run out in 46 days. To address this, a hatchery center needs to be built in Estonia so that chicks can be raised here.

Sealiha ja veiseliha tootmine Eestis on samuti olulised. Eestlased söövad palju sealiha ja veiselihast peamiselt hakkliha. Nendes valdkondades on veel palju arenguvõimalusi. Näiteks tuleks toetada väikeseid tootjaid ja parandada .

Pork and beef production in Estonia is also important. Estonians consume a lot of pork, and beef is mainly eaten as minced meat. There are still many development opportunities in these areas. For example, small producers should be supported, and animal welfare should be improved.

Terras rõhutas, et Eesti ei saa loota teiste riikidele kriisi ajal. Läti ja Leeduga on olulised suhted, et . Praegu on vaja ettevalmistuda, et kriisi korral oleks töös.

Terras emphasized that Estonia cannot rely on other countries during a crisis. Relations with Latvia and Lithuania are crucial to ensure food supply works across borders. Currently, it is necessary to prepare so that in the event of a crisis, food supply chains are operational.

Toidujulgeoleku parandamiseks tuleb . Uus põlvkond on teadlikum, kust toit tuleb ja mis mõju söögivalikutel on. Oluline on, et tootmine oleks selge ja avatud. Loomade heaolu parandamine on samuti väga oluline, et näidata, millises .

To improve food security, awareness must be increased. The new generation is more aware of where food comes from and the impact of dietary choices. It is important that production is transparent and open. Improving animal welfare is also very important to show in what value space our people live.
