Few people know, but until early 2022, the operating principles of the Russian auto industry and the country’s “chicken industry” were very similar. However, they will enter 2024
Eggs and chicken have received widespread attention from the media, social networks and authorities due to the recent increase in retail prices. Meanwhile, some time ago this branch of our industry practically “mirrored” the Russian automotive industry. But we didn’t hear anything about a complete shutdown of poultry farms at that time, when, for example, AVTOVAZ slowed down its conveyor belts due to the cessation of component deliveries. Although, no matter how paradoxical it may sound, until some time the production of the same eggs in our country was organized according to completely “automotive” canons.
Russian assembly plants (and also our native AVTOVAZ) have always received parts from all over the world and assembled finished cars from them. Suffice it to say that, for example, even door hinges for Niva came to us from Europe until recently!
It’s much the same story with eggs. Someone has to wear them, right? This means that millions of laying hens have to be sourced from somewhere. For this purpose, there are special industrial chicken coops that produce so-called hatching eggs. Such eggs are purchased by ordinary poultry farms, they are grown into laying hens and only then do they begin to produce the “source materials” for our morning scrambled eggs. Russian companies used to buy hatching eggs en masse from abroad.
To effectively raise chickens and ensure the required volumes of egg production, special vitamins and nutritional supplements are required. And also industrial quantities of drugs – for the prevention and treatment of diseases among residents of poultry houses. They were also purchased abroad in large quantities.
As for hatching eggs, Russian “chicken breeders” have been able to adapt quickly in recent years and now almost completely (currently 90%) provide themselves with these “components”.
The same cannot be said about the Russian auto industry. Which in fact simply reoriented (and even then not completely) from importing Western components to Chinese suppliers. That is to say, our auto industry has not demonstrated self-sufficiency and has no intention of doing so in the near future.
Of course you object: look, Russian factories have already started making electronic components for cars – replacing the left Westerners. So it is that this production amounts to buying electronic components from China, installing them on a Russian circuit board and installing them in a Russian plastic box. That’s all. Still the same “China” in a candy wrapper with the inscription “made in Russia”.
So we can safely say about changes in the Russian automotive industry: “the same eggs, only in profile.” Unlike our real egg producers. Their current price increase is not caused by problems with their own production, but simply by the desire of chicken businessmen to “make more money.”
