Potatoes, onions and other vegetables have run out on the other side of the Ukrainian border, but Hungarian farmers are constantly sending supplies, said István Jakab, the president of the Association of Hungarian Farmers' Associations and Farmers' Cooperatives (Magoss), speaking to the current channel M1 yesterday.

István Jakab, the vice-president of the Parliament, said that in addition to those who fled to Hungary, they also had to take care of those who remained in Transcarpathia , and that the churches also provided great help in this.

He pointed out that Magos has sites and warehouses near the border, so there is no such amount of goods that they cannot receive, the system works smoothly. The president of the association mentioned as an example that next week Hungarian mills will send 24 tons of flour to Subcarpathia as part of the Hungarian bread program.
