Faik Tunay stated on his YouTube channel that agriculture was in moribund state and said, “I used to think that our President was misled by those around him. However, you bring these people and assign them to them,” he said.
Giving two examples of why agriculture is in agony, Tunay stated that the state provided 65 lira support for one acre of wheat, but this support evaporated with the increases in fertilizer. On the other hand, Tunay noted that there was no increase in milk prices for the milk produced by the producers for 2 years, with the last increase there was a 21 percent increase, but only feed prices increased by 56 percent, and said, “What do I mean? I do not deny the support given. But the money coming out of pocket due to import frenzy, rising prices and wrong policies is much more than the support. Agriculture and animal husbandry cannot continue this way. Mr. President, they are misleading you. I used to think like this: Mr. Tayyip cannot care about everything, he cannot see everything, the people around him are wrong. But you bring these people, you assign them to them. "Look, if we do not improve agriculture, it is not possible for the country to move forward," he said.
