Marijan Risticevic Meets with Representatives of Independent Association of Agriculturalists of Serbia
The Chairman of the Agriculture, Forestry and Water Management Committee Marijan Risticevic met today, at the National Assembly House, with representatives of the Independent Association of Agriculturalists of Serbia (NAPS).
The Chairman of the NAPS Executive Board Jovica Jaksic suggested that subsidies should if possible be granted only to professional agriculturalists, that is, people who are not engaged in any other activity.
“In this way the possibility of abuse would be minimized, and professional agriculturalists’ subsidies would automatically be up to six times higher per plot”, said Jaksic.
The Committee Chairman urged the agriculturalists to maintain dialogue and cooperation and offered the possibility to organize a sitting of the Agriculture, Forestry and Water Management Committee outside of the National Assembly seat which would make it possible for more interested parties to attend.
