The Romanian Minister of Finance, Alexandru Nazare, announced nearly 60 million euros in aid for farmers impacted by rising fertilizer prices. This support follows a favorable review of a project from the Ministry of Agriculture aimed at compensating price increases in 2026 due to the Middle East crisis. Half of the funding will come from non-repayable European funds, while the other half will be sourced from the national budget. The aid targets producers of various crops, including wheat and vegetables, and will be distributed through the Agency for Payments and Intervention in Agriculture (APIA). Nazare emphasized the importance of ensuring that financial commitments align with the approved budget and highlighted the need for clear funding sources for each measure.
