The competent Ministers discussed the state of the markets and how it affects agricultural activity throughout the European Union, the Minister of Agriculture said in his statements after the conclusion of the morning's discussion Kostas Kadis, who participates in the last Agriculture and Fisheries Council of his term.

Mr. Kadis said that during the discussion there was a general perception that farmers throughout the European Union are adversely affected by the effects of Russia's invasion of Ukraine.

“Especially the increase in energy costs has had a knock-on effect on the increase in grain, animal feed, production costs in general. Of course, similar effects are also present in Cyprus, which we presented with specific data during the Council as well”, he added.

The Minister of Agriculture added that all the Ministers considered it necessary “to keep active the solidarity corridors that transport agricultural products from Ukraine to other European countries and to the whole world, but also to maintain agricultural activity in Ukraine for the benefit of the citizens as well of Ukraine but also of the entire planet”.

Kostas Kadis also referred to the fact that today's Council of Agriculture is the last in which he participates as Minister, and added that he had the opportunity to greet his counterparts and the Commissioners of Health and Agriculture, whom he thanked “for the cooperation we have had over the five years, for the fact that we spent difficult but also pleasant moments together”.

“I think we faced significant challenges through the crises we managed, I would say to the benefit of Cypriot farmers and European citizens more broadly”, he added.< /p>
