Over 1.2 million hectares are affected by drought more than 30%, out of a total of 2.9 million hectares sown in autumn, and compensation for these areas will be provided before the start of the autumn campaign, Minister of Agriculture and Rural Development Adrian Oros said on Tuesday evening.
He said that no money could be provided from European funds for compensation, but the Ministry of Agriculture currently has funds for drought compensation, but not for the damage caused by the recent floods.
"We have the money for the drought, but the problems with the floods have come up these days and we will have to identify other sources for intervention. We know that what has happened is very serious," said Oros.
