Bulgarian grain farmers are suffering the huge negative impact of bad climate and extreme heat.

There is an extraordinary situation that is becoming worse, chairperson of the National Grain Producers Association Krasimir Avramov said at a meeting with the MEP Petya Stavreva, FOCUS News Agency reporter announced.

Stavreva said that the association warned in May that serious losses in the grain industry are expected.

We wanted to have a state of emergency declared, but Minister Kabil and the Ministry of State Policy for Disasters and Accidents denied the request.

The ministries' reaction has made the situation worse and allowed the crisis to deepen, Avramov said.

The damages this year are enormous, grain producers announced.
