Euskaraz irakurri: Espainiako Nekazaritza ministerak jaki ekoizle, banatzaile eta saltzaileekin aztertuko du prezioen gorakada

The Spanish Minister of Agriculture, Luis Planas, will meet this Monday with food producers, distributors and vendors to find a solution to the increase in the cost of basic foods.

In the last year the price of food has risen 15%and although the CPI has registered a downward trend for five months, in the last one there has been a rebound of 5.6% in the BAC and 6.4% in Navarra.

To give some examples, lemons, potatoes and eggs, in origin are more expensive this year than last year over 80%, while oranges have risen 101%. Onions, also a staple food, have become 238% more expensive in the last year. Sugar has become more expensive by more than 50% and milk and oil by more than 30%.

After doing the sum, it is the consumer who else notices it when making the purchase.

Lately, several proposals have been put forward to solve it, including Yolanda Díaz’s to put a cap on the shopping cart, in which Unidas Podemos proposed a 14% discount on the price of 20 basic productswave VAT reduction imposed by the Spanish Government (represents 3 euros less on a purchase of 30 euros).

However, the results do not seem to be good enough, so Planas will meet with food producers, distributors and sellers to find solutions.
