We put a special focus on the production of sunflower and to motivate the citizens with additional measures to produce this culture. In addition to bread and flour, we should also have oil constantly, said Minister of Agriculture Ljupcho Nikolovski, during an interview with TV Sitel.
“We put a special focus on the production of sunflower and to motivate the citizens with additional measures to produce this culture. In addition to bread and flour, we should also have oil constantly. And we all have a responsibility here. We have enough supplies, I was personally convinced of that. Wheat and corn are leaving today, and next week I expect the oil. This week, Serbia lifted the ban and that process has started, I’m in daily communication with the Serbian authorities, the next session of the government in Serbia will pass some decisions and we will provide refined and unrefined cooking oil. I expect that certain raw materials will be reduced, they are now more expensive,” Nikolovski said.
“The Government has adopted a plan for food production, and in addition to the plan, we must fight for the citizens not to worry, not to panic and to provide sufficient quantities of start-up crops. Serbia has decided for 100 thousand tons of wheat, the quantity is enough, because we are facing the harvest of wheat from the domestic production,” said Nikolovski.
