Still no official data on this year's wheat productivity in Kosovo

As much as the harvest has not yet been complete, the rains of white cereals - including fbgur, Kosovo - now in many agrarian environments but also among numerous farmers calculated this year's productivity. There are also some areas, which are not very few, in the higher altitudes, or in the hilly-malal regions, the term used by agrarian yurtar institutions. But for this year's yield of white cereals, especially wheat, there has been heard conspiracies, assumptions and speculations, that this year, wine will not be as dangerous as it is to harvest, that in this summer we will have fewer amounts of wheat from our fields, that in these lower crops over the last few years, climate conditions and non-reducing mineral waste (reducing its amount) by Kosovo farmers as a result of overpriced prices, etc.

But, now at the end of this year's harvesting campaign in the country, what do Kosovo agrarian officials say about productivity, and how many are it?

The Ministry of Agriculture, Forestry and Rural Development (MBPZHR) has announced that based on statistical data over the years, the average productivity for wheat culture in Kosovo behaves from 3,500-4500kg/ha.

In a response to the Economic Bulletin, they say that to know the average exact productivity in the period in which we find ourselves is early to talk after the campaign's end, the Commission for Monitoring Harvest-Smoking prepared the final report on this process, where productivity will be known correctly for this year.

They have also announced that in the context of the Direct Payment Programme/ Subventions for 2022, MBPHR an hectares of wheat and subsidizes about 474 euros, including for the first time the subsidy of the value of the oil excise of 0.36 cents, as well as spring waste of 150 euros per hectares. “E addition, farmers have the possibility of subsidising wheat by 0.03 cents per kilogram, through delivery to mills”, the MBPZHR responses said.

According to them, if the farmer hands over the wheat to the gathering point, then he will receive subsidies for the amount of wheat-killograms delivered in value of $ 0.03/kg. So, as they say, through this form of subvention, the MBPZR has given farmers the opportunity to decide for themselves on their own wishes and interest if it is convenient for them to hand over the wheat to the collecting points or to store it in some other form.
