He reminded: György Raskó, adviser of the Tisza Party, is the one who sold the Hungarian food industry to foreigners. Now they represent the interests of foreigners again. In Brussels, they support proposals that end up with large Ukrainian companies receiving area-based subsidies instead of Hungarian farmers, he added.

István Nagy explained: on the other hand, the national government is committed to the fact that the full exploitation of the potential in the Hungarian agricultural and food sector is one of the most serious national economic interests. This is precisely why the Ministry of Agriculture launched its largest agricultural and food industry investment program after the regime change. Thanks to the maximum national co-financing of 80 percent provided for EU funds from 2021, HUF 400 billion have been spent on the development of livestock farms, more than HUF 100 billion on the modernization of horticultural plants, around HUF 230 billion on expanding food industry capacities and HUF 180 billion on agriculture in the last three years alone. transition to precision farming. Thanks to the investments, the farmers can become stronger and the retaining power of the countryside can be further improved, he emphasized.

The Minister of Agriculture recalled that two calls for tenders for the renewal and modernization of food processing were published this summer, with a budget of HUF 200 billion. Separately for small projects and separately for large ones, so they don’t compete with each other for resources, he said.

The tenders that have just closed were held with great interest. Funding requests of HUF 54 billion for more than 860 projects were received for the call for support for the development of processing plants, which helps the implementation of smaller projects. Companies submitted a total of more than HUF 708 billion tenders for the call for support for the complex development of processing plants that are competitive on the international market and help to create capacities that also increase domestic exports. According to the minister, “it’s fantastic how many people see opportunities in the sector”. This overwhelming desire for development and entrepreneurship also proves that the stakeholders are also partners of the government in the complete modernization of agriculture and the food industry, for which they consciously want to act, he added.
