Jovanchev: Budget revision to provide Mden 1.7 billion in farmer subsidies

Skopje, 1 August 2024 (MIA) — Agriculture is one of the priorities of the 2024 budget revision, which will provide Mden 1.7 billion in farmer subsidies, VMRO-DPMNE Member of Parliament Zorancho Jovanchev told a press conference Thursday.

 

Jovanchev highlighted that farmers would receive subsidies as soon as Parliament voted for the budget revision.

 

"Farmers will no longer be forced to wait for their hard-earned money," he said. "As soon as the revision is approved, these funds will be paid into their accounts." 


Jovanchev also said an additional Mden 14 million had been earmarked for the national irrigation program. mr/
