Agri Policy Deserves Support, President Pahor Says

Gornja Radgona, 22 August - Slovenia's agricultural policy deserves support, President Borut Pahor said as he opened the Agra fair in Gornja Radgona on Saturday. He stressed that farmers must be helped with "modern principles of state intervention", or else the same quality of living in the countryside and urban areas will not be achieved.
