MOSCOW, Nov 19 (PRIME) -- The Agriculture Ministry does not see introduction of excises on processed red meat products feasible, an official told PRIME on Monday, when newspaper Izvestiya reported that an expert government panel offered to introduce a 160 ruble excise on sausages and other types of processed red meat.
