Protest against the unlimited influx of grain from Ukraine
Farmers protested against uncontrolled import of grain from Ukraine, which, according to the participants of the demonstration, strikes their interests.
– We wanted to show our dissatisfaction.
Unfortunately, despite the declarations made to us by Minister Henryk Kowalczyk, nothing changes.
We already know for sure that in the harvest there will be no place for our wheat in the warehouses.
The export of grain goes very slow, but the import of Ukraine goes in full swing – said Wiesław Gryn from the “Cheated village” association, quoted by the weekly-rolniczy.pl.
Gryn also pointed out that farmers have long been trying to present their arguments to the rulers, but their actions remain ineffective.
– Our demands that we have been submitting for half a year are not taken into account at all.
The ministry does nothing.
And unfortunately, farmers will not have anything to buy fuel or fertilizers for.
Why?
Because our grain is unnevable.
The price of wheat in the Zamość region dropped below PLN 900, and rapeseed below PLN 2,000.
We can’t function at these prices.
The idea was to help Ukraine, but not to destroy Polish agriculture – said the farmer.

Commenting on these events, Henryk Kowalczyk expressed his readiness to talk, provided that they take another, more constructive form.
– I invited representatives of this organization and I still invite you to talk.
It’s hard to talk in noise and whistles.
I invite you to specific ideas and conversations – said Kowalczyk.
