Chisinau, 20 April /MOLDPRES/-The cabinet today approved a decision according to which farmers will be able to participate in the management of external funds and in the subsidization process. The decision also provides for the structure of two bodies in charge of monitoring these two processes.

Agriculture and Food Industry Minister Eduard Grama said professional associations in the field and professional farmers’ organizations would have access to objective information, having on one hand the possibility to monitor the progress in turning external funds to good account, and on the other hand, would be able to ensure the transparency of the subsidization management process.

Grama said one of the provisions of the so-called “agricultural package” was enforced this way.

The representative of the National Federation of Agricultural Producers from Moldova AGROinform was accepted into the team of the Consolidated Unit for the Implementation of Programmes of the International Fund for Agriculture Development (IFAD), based on loan agreements signed by the Moldovan government and IFAD. The representative of “Moldova-Fruct” Association of Fruit Producers and Exporters was included into IFAD’s Supervisory Board.
