Abstract [eng] The tendencies of the production of milk and dairy products, the sales on the domestic and foreign markets, and the import are analysed in the article. The changes in milk purchase price, producer, export and retail prices of dairy products as well as the price comparison to the same prices in other EU countries are presented. Over the nine months of 2009 as compared to the corresponding period of 2008, the amounts of milk purchased as well as the production amounts of many dairy products (except interventional products) decreased. As a result, the sales on the domestic and foreign markets declined as well. The main reason of these chantes was the lower purchase, producer and retail prices. Such situation was caused by the tendencies of world demand for dairy products and of the prices. However, after the world prices of dairy products started to grow in August-September 2009, the purchase price of milk and the export prices of dairy products went up in Lithuania as well. Only the retail prices of dairy products were unaffected by this tendency. In the near future the market of milk and dairy products should start to recover; following the world trends, the prices of milk and dairy products should go up as well.
