Farmers from Northeastern Bulgaria insist that they attend a hearing at the National Assembly Committee on Agriculture and Foods, BNR correspondent Maya Zhtarbanova informs. The farmers sent a letter to the committees’ chairperson and to this country’s Minister of Agriculture, Food and Forestry Desislava Taneva due to the difficult situation of the agriculture sector.
