Kiril Vatev: We can feed 30 million people  - 1

"We have the potential to feed 30 million people, but we are only 6 million. At the same time, we import 80% of fruits and vegetables. This is a shame!".

This was stated by the former minister of agriculture Kiril Vatev in the show "EuroDikof".

"We had 11 million sheep, and today I don't know if their number is not 1 million. There are not a few people who still think that the planes that spray preparations over agricultural crops vaccinate them against coronavirus or whooping cough." ;, Vatev also said. He emphasized that we do not have well-structured branch organizations in agriculture.

"Romania made cooperative agriculture, while we have a permit regime for Greece to use our waters from Arda, Struma and Mesta. Our country must definitely provide our farmers with water for irrigation," said Kiril Vatev harshly.
