Hailstorm and hurricane wind destroyed vegetable and tobacco crops in the villages of Gospodintsi and Breznitsa in Gotse Delchev municipality. Most vegetable and tobacco growers were not officially registered and stand lower chance of receiving financial compensations.

The farmers are entitled to compensation from the state, only if their crops are completely destroyed by the natural calamities.
