The Easter table will be up to 10% more expensive this year according to data from INKA – General Consumer Federation of Greece reports the PASOK-Movement for Change. The Mitsotakis government stubbornly refuses and is unable to get in touch with the Greek reality. Breeders have sounded the alarm about shortages in lamb goats that will increase the already high costs as well as the absence of effective controls, it is emphasized.

According to Harilaou Trikoupi, the market figures are revealing: Amnoerifi exports increased this year by 20% due to the Catholic Easter. More than 85,000 lambs have been lost due to natural disasters. Insufficient checks on the market for accuracy and Greekizations. Reduction of breeders due to increased production costs with all that entails.

“Ignorance of reality led the Minister of Development to declare that the prices for the lamb in the “Easter Basket” will be the same as last year or even lower. Tell us how he will achieve it and what “magic” he will do to achieve what Mr. Skrekas states. Unless these “magics” are linked to the inadequacy of controls and Hellenizations. PASOK has clear proposals for dealing with the accuracy and support of the primary sector,” the announcement concludes.
