„Bătaie de joc”. 333 de lei/ha pentru porumbul calamitat în România. Cât ar primi, în același scenariu, un fermier din Franța

In Romania, farmers affected by drought in 2025 will receive 333 lei per hectare for corn and sunflower, a sum deemed insufficient. This support comes after significant crop losses, with over 550,000 hectares impacted. The government allocated a total budget of 155.36 million lei, half from EU funds. Farmers argue that this compensation does not cover their costs, with some facing bankruptcy. In contrast, French farmers receive significantly higher compensation for similar losses. The Romanian scheme requires a damage assessment and is limited to those with at least 30% crop loss. Many farmers express concern over future crop viability due to ongoing drought risks.
