Yeah but what he's saying is that even with the subsidies they get they're unable to sell at a profit, and it's all to do with much cheaper grain coming from Ukraine. If you choose to believe this or not that's up to you, I'm just relaying the message because I haven't seen this being talked about (and ofc I personally tend to believe him). The country in question is Romania, and according to him it's the subsidies they get, the pesticide and fertilizers they're allowed to use, are all crap compared to other European countries whose politicians negotiated much better deals for their farmers than our so called "leaders".
My source is this youtube interview https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3m41LZVjulA&t - but unfortunately it's in Romanian and doesn't have subtitles.
