POTATOES
$
ZAGREB, August 8 (Hina) - Croatian Minister of Agriculture and
Forestry Matej Jankovic on Thursday visited the Zagreb "Tresnjevka"
market to check out the supply and demand and the quality and price
of agricultural produce of farmers who directly sell goods at lower
prices.
Jankovic said that on Wednesday he decreed to raise customs
duties for potatoes. "No one is interested in importing potatoes at
the moment", he said, adding that the decree should not incite "our
market to take advantage and raise the price of potatoes at the
expense of the customer, because the protective price will be
immediately revoked".
Answering a journalist's question if it will be necessary to
import wheat before the next harvest, Jankovic said that supplies
on the market showed there was enough for Croatia's needs.
