petition organisers have told the news. We have told the news that the form of the criteria for subvention will leave 80 percent of the farmers unable to apply and thus will gain nothing from the state.
They announced that the petition will be sent to the ministry on Monday, and if there is not a change of decision, there will be peaceful protest by agricultural means.
Because of disagreements with the form of wheat subvention. We are in all Kosovo municipalities presenting the petition. On Monday we send him to Pristina. The patriarchs themselves are being prepared, and on Monday we will hand them over to the ministry. If the decision does not change, we have to prepare for peaceful protest by agricultural means in Pristina. We are unhappy with the criteria: He made our contracts at the swimmer's, imagine if he went for a hectare of land to make contracts to the swimmer at a minimum of 30 euros, or 75 euros is for hectares of”, one of the organisers says.
“They've also forced us to have six tons at the collection point. In this form, over 80 percent of farmers have more than lost their application rights than they have to pay for treatment on the basis of criteria that have been set”, he says.
Farmers warn that if Minister Peci fails to reflect on their demands, close to 100 agricultural vehicles will be used for a peaceful protest in Pristina.
