Tánczos Barna, bilanț la Agricultură: până la 1,5 miliarde de lei necesare pentru plățile către fermieri

The Ministry of Agriculture requires up to 1.5 billion lei to make payments to farmers by year-end, as stated by interim minister Tánczos Barna. Funding needs are estimated between 1.2 and 1.5 billion lei, contingent on budget rectification. Various support schemes are ready for payment, but financial allocation is pending. Farmers face high costs for fuel and fertilizers, and the ministry has proposed several aid programs for livestock and crop producers. While EU funds have been received, national contributions remain unallocated, impacting both national and EU-funded programs. The ministry has not received additional funds since May, affecting operationalization of European programs.
