To much rain harms the grain, however, it is good for the potatoes
“The flood itself in terms of the agricultural sector as a whole does not cause significant damages, the flooded arable land is expected to remain below 50 hectares”- Vancsura József, president of the Federation of Cereal Farmers (GOSZ) told Világgazdaság.
Cereal farmers are facing with a major problem; the relatively cool, wet weather. “The amount of rainfall in recent weeks is too much, the continuous rainfall greatly increases the likelihood of fungal diseases. Against fungal diseases spraying can be the solution, but spraying significantly increases the costs”. (B. L., Világgazdaság Online)
