According to them, only the help of the Slovak government will reduce the rise in food prices. “Another (third) wave of price increases awaits us. Comet prices from the new crop are also under enormous price pressure, especially from global developments. Rising prices and high food prices are a trend that Slovaks will face at least during the next year. Therefore, it is our duty to warn the government to do something about this (trend), “ said SPPK chairman Emil Macho. According to him, the current crisis reveals the low competitiveness of the Slovak food industry.
According to Mach, Slovak food producers use the strategic financial support of the state to stabilize the production process during the war and its consequences on food markets and the prices of crucial agri-food commodities. “National financial support in combination with EU support will reduce the rise in food prices, thus ensuring the availability of food for all groups of the Slovak population,” Macho underlined.
According to PKS President Daniel Poturnay, food producers are calling for four measures to stabilize the Slovak food industry.
