Caretaker Premier Dimitar Glavchev, Deputy Premier and Minister of Finance Lyudmila Petkova and Agriculture Minister Georgi Tahov will meet today with representatives of agricultural organisations in Bulgaria. Solutions to the most pressing problems in the sector will be sought during the meeting, the government press service said.

''Experience shows that when we are invited to such meetings, we are told how we will not be able to receive something in its full amount within the set deadline and that we have to show understanding", Simeon Karakolev from the National Sheep and Goat Breeding Association said for BNR.  At the beginning of the week, farmers were supposed to receive payments under the so-called Ukrainian aid, but this did not happen.
