State will provide additional assistance to farmers

The state will provide additional aid in the amount of about three hundred million lei to farmers whose harvest has been largely compromised by this year's drought. This was announced by the country's president, Igor Dodon, after the meeting of the Supreme Security Council held on August 12.

"This year, the total support fund is one billion one hundred million lei. Last year it was just over nine hundred million. In addition, an additional three hundred million lei identified internally will be allocated. For the first stage, we decided to grant subsidies in the amount of over one thousand lei for two hundred thousand hectares. There will definitely be support for the second group as well ", said Igor Dodon.

At the same time, the president said that the country's food security is fully ensured.
