The Minister of Agriculture, Florin Barbu, suggested that the cap on commercial markups could be extended from basic food items to all food products in stores. This proposal will be analyzed by the government as the current mechanism expires at the end of the year. Barbu emphasized the importance of inflation data, which will be released on November 12, before making any decisions. He defended the existing cap on basic food prices, noting its effectiveness in controlling inflation. Additionally, discussions are ongoing regarding a tax exemption for farmers purchasing diesel fuel directly from pumps starting in 2027.
