Hungarians consume domestic melons

Ninety percent of the domestic melon consumption are Hungarian melons – the Minister of State of the Ministry of Agriculture said at the Fifth National Melon Forum on Wednesday in Medgyesegyháza.

Feldman Zsolt said: “The Hungarian melon was added to the map” thanks to the product tastings of the previous years and consumption promotion campaigns will be held again this year. He stressed that the organization level of the melon producers is very low. In his view, the situation is not tenable in the medium term, there is a need for cooperation. (MTI)
