Farm policy programme may go unfunded in 2026
A 2.3 billion lei farm support plan for 2026 may go unfunded after its money was moved to old state debts to farmers.
Written later, from the reports of that day.
What it means for you
If you farm and planned production around promised subsidies, it is not yet clear whether you will get the money in 2026. Support for sugar beet, vegetables, livestock and agricultural insurance cannot be paid without funding. The programme remains in force on paper, because the Government has not changed its decision.
What happened
At a meeting of the PSPA Monitoring Committee, the Agriculture Ministry's proposal to use all available resources for state debts to farmers was approved. Alexandru Slusari, executive director of the farmers' association Forta Fermierilor, says the decision de facto cuts funding for several sectors. The Agriculture Ministry has not yet given an official comment on alternative sources of funding.
In short
- The strategic farm policy programme for 2026-2030 has a total budget of 18.9 billion lei over five years.
- For 2026, 2.3 billion lei was planned for farmers.
- The Agriculture Ministry directed all available resources to state debts owed to farmers.
- The Government's decision on the programme has not been amended yet.
