This year’s harvest is about to end. Slightly more than 10 million tons of autumn crops were harvested this year, compared to last year’s 12.3 million tons – the Minister of State of the Ministry of Agriculture (FM) announced in Budapest at a press conference.

Czerván György said that maize is grown on about 1 million hectares this year. The yield is expected to be an average of 6.7 tons per hectare, which is about 2 million tonnes less than last year’s record production. About 20,000 hectares of maize is still to be harvested. Works will end in a day or two – he said. (MTI)
