The Minister of Agriculture, Forestry and Rural Development, Faton Peci, during Sunday visited the farmers at the time of harvesting in the municipality of Theranda.

On the Facebook social network, Minister Peci wrote that thanks to the help from the Kurti Government, Kosovar farmers are the most supported farmers in the region.

"Today, together with Prime Minister Albin Kurti, in the village of Sopi in the Municipality of Suhareka, we visited the farmer Fazli Beqiraj, who owns about 60 hectares of wheat, where we started harvesting and threshing the wheat.

The Kosovar farmer, thanks to the support of the Kurti 2 Government, for only one year of leadership, is the most supported farmer compared to the countries of the region".

Peci did not fail to mention the subsidy that the Government has given this year to farmers who cultivate wheat.

"The government has prioritized agriculture by increasing support up to 52 million euros for the Direct Payments / Subsidies Program 2022, where as we speak, the process of administrative control and that on the ground is continuing.

1 ha of wheat this year will be subsidized with around €474, including for the first time the subsidy of the oil excise value of 0.36 cents as well as spring fertilization with €150 per hectare".

According to him, the simplification of the application procedure for subsidies has led to an increase in the areas planted with wheat.

"The simplification of the application procedure has led to an increase in planted areas, and fortunately, this year we expect a higher yield thanks to the favorable climatic conditions that have prevailed in our country," Peci said on Facebook.
