Today in the Chernivtsi region there is a critical situation with apples, which are purchased for processing at low prices. There are no reasonable reasons for such a reduction in prices, says MP Maxim Burbak.The people's deputy emphasizes that especially many appeals came from residents of three districts of the Chernivtsi region: Zastavnovsky, Sokiryansky and Khotinsky. The population asks how the state can protect it in this situation.

To date, farmers have suffered great damage and do not have the means to continue gardening. Already this year, they will not be able to purchase funds to protect trees. In foreign markets, the sale of concentrate has not decreased by 10 times and its price remains the same. There are no good reasons for such a sharp drop in the purchase price of fruit.

What is happening with the purchase of apples in the Chernivtsi region, the deputy calls cartel conspiracy. He asked the Antimonopoly Committee to urgently conduct an investigation and punish those responsible. He also asked to protect the rights of farmers who suffered a lot of damage, the first Prime Minister of Ukraine Stepan Kubiv.
