The decline in producer prices calls for an improvement in efficiency

“The agricultural prices are falling much higher than the production costs, which warns that efficiency increasing investments are needed in the sector” – Tresó István, the Head of the Division of Agricultural Development at K&H drew attention.

“The most recent agricultural price data shows that although agricultural prices and farmers' expenses also declined, the decline of costs can not keep pace with the fall in sales prices. Thus, the parity, ie the producer prices and the ratio of expenses opens again. Efficiency increasing investments are needed in the sector” – Tresó István added.
