Mostly refugee farmers are driven to bankruptcy on a daily basis as they are unable to pay their accumulated debts due to animal feed, said the DISY MP. "Last week, 3 herders had their herds confiscated and led to the slaughter because they could not pay.
"The increase in the prices of soybeans and other animal feed in connection with the very low prices of milk and meat, as well as the untimely payment of the supermarkets, has now made the profession financially unbearable and unsustainable", he added. The solution that can give an immediate answer is the approval of the bill submitted by Kyriakos Hatzigiannis, for criminalizing the use of milk powder or vegetable fat in the preparation of halloumi, as well as the other bill regarding the imposition of a fine in case of delay in repayment.
