CRO FARMERS' ASSOCIATION CALLS FOR END OF REPRESSION

ZAGREB, July 15 (Hina) - The Croatian Farmers' Association on Thursday called on the government, police, and magistrates' courts to cease repressing farmers who between June 26 and 30 in protest blocked several Croatian roads. The association reminded that, after the government and the farmers reached an agreement, Interior Minister Ivan Penic promised no revenge against the protesters. The association today reacted to rulings of the Magistrates' Court in Cazma, which fined the association, the leader of the local protest, and 19 farmers for breaking the Law on Security in Road Traffic. "Cazma has not been chosen out by accident as the place where to punish the farmers, (it was chosen) because the Croatian Peasants' Party rules there," said Ivan Kolar, the president of the farmers' association. Kolar said the government-farmers agreement was being implemented, despite instances of man

"Cazma has not been chosen out by accident as the place where to punish the farmers, (it was chosen) because the Croatian Peasants' Party rules there," said Ivan Kolar, the president of the farmers' association. Kolar said the government-farmers agreement was being implemented, despite instances of manipulation in the field - some people are trying to purchase wheat at US$0.1 per kilogram. Wheat will be sold at a minimum US$0.13 per kilogram, he said, adding the government had confirmed so after assessing there would be no surplus due to a poor harvest. The government will ensure favourable wheat purchase loans to all potential buyers currently out of money, Kolar said, adding Agriculture Minister Ivan Djurkic promised the state would purchase every kilogram of wheat that had not been sold. Commenting on some analyses indicating Croatia's impending access to the World Trade Organisation (WTO) could crash Croatian agriculture, Kolar said he believes Croatia's negotiators will not let everything end in a mere liberalisation of the import of agricultural products. The Croatian Farmers' Association would like an extension of the deadline for accessing the WTO, to enable Croatian agriculture to make adequate preparations, Kolar said. (hina) ha jn
