Such an agreement was reached at a meeting between Prime Minister Boyko Borissov and Agriculture Minister Desislava Taneva with industry representatives. This was announced on the website of the Ministry of Agriculture. The aid is to improve the liquidity of farms that have deferred their loans and are unable to repay them during the pandemic. Notification will be requested from the EC for this aid. PM Borissov also added that more than 13m euros (26m levs) have been provided for farmers suffering losses due to drought.
