A month before the start of the wheat and barley harvest, farmers are not happy that they will have suffered losses by the year’s end. Because of the duty free imports of grain from Ukraine prices have plummeted, the warehouses are full and farmers do not have money available and are forced to sell at a loss. The prices of fertilizers, machine parts and fuels have gone up, and this has pushed up the cost price of the new harvest. The EU’s preventive measures on the import of 20 farming products from Ukraine are no longer of any help. In practice, they are being circumvented, because transit is not prohibited and imports are taking place using Romanian and Moldovan trucks, which are not subject to any prohibitions, said Radostina Zhekova, chair of the Dobrudzha Union of Grain Producers for the BNR.
