European Commision announces aid to farmesrs

The European Commission wants to spend €125 million on helping fruit and vegetable producers that experience losses due to Russian embargo. The funds are going to be used on withdrawing a part of the crop from the market to secure the stability of the prices, the EC said on . The help will be distributed on the tomatoes, carrot, white cabbage, pepper, cauliflowers, cucumbers, mushrooms, apples, pears, strawberries, raspberries, blackberries, gooseberry, grapes and kiwi markets, because these products cannot be easily stored. The special procedures will be active from Monday. The European Commission monitors the situation and is able to further help the  producers should the current state worsen.
