Prime Minister Edi Rama held a meeting with entrepreneurs in the olive oil processing sector in the city of Berat.

During the conversation, Rama emphasized that the main objective is to increase production standards, so that Albanian products are competitive and marketable in the European Union market.

One of the most discussed issues was the change in policy for supplying oil to farmers.

The Prime Minister emphasized that farmers will no longer benefit from tax-free oil, arguing that this scheme had been misused.

"Exiting this formula will not lead to a reduction in production," Rama said, adding that tax-free oil was in many cases used for purposes unrelated to agriculture.

According to him, the change aims to increase transparency and efficiency in supporting farmers, while the government will continue to offer other forms of support for the agricultural sector.

"Oil has been a challenge for agriculture, because we have tried to turn it around from several sides. We have had over 60 thousand who have received oil, while the productive power does not have this kind of proportion. In this sense, we have not removed support for anyone, but we have removed the possibility that oil can be abused and used for purposes not related to agriculture. Many people who work other people's lands have been forced to take the oil and give it to others. We have been forced to try several ways, and this now comes as a result of the knowledge of formalization, which will give you the opportunity to have more support from the state and benefit from European funds. One of the most difficult challenges of EU membership is food security. Food security standards must be guaranteed. I believe that Albanians have the ability to adapt, but we must start working now for what the European Union wants. We must meet the standards as an EU country," Rama said.
