Russia’s major dairy holding EkoNiva Group has once again been recognised as the undisputed leader in the rating of domestic raw milk producers. The annual ranking is compiled by analysts from the National Association of Milk Producers (Soyuzmoloko), Streda Consulting and the Milknews industry agency. EkoNiva has topped the list of the country’s 30 largest companies in terms of gross milk yield in 2025.

In January-December 2025, the Group’s farms produced 1.45m tonnes of raw milk in physical weight, which corresponds to the total output of the companies occupying from 2nd to 7th spots in the rating combined. Compared to 2024, EkoNiva improved its result by 100,000 tons (2024: 1.35m tons). The Group has been increasing the cow productivity by 6 to 7% year on year.
