Moldova's business agenda is being reshaped by a wave of fiscal, energy and investment decisions, with parliament advancing a broad tax package, new rules for key market segments and major infrastructure projects. At the same time, regulators are signaling possible pressure on household electricity bills, while international lenders and partners are moving ahead with fresh financing and modernization plans.
The Farmers' Association has spoken out against the planned change to the tax regime for grain and oilseed crops, stating that it could drastically worsen the situation in an already weakened sector. The organization warns that if the decision stands, it is prepared to begin consultations on mass protests and insists on a public debate of the initiative in parliament.
The Farmers' Association stated that the current temporary licensing regime for imports of grains and oilseeds is too short and does not provide sufficient protection for the domestic market amid intense pressure from external prices. Industry representatives warn that without an extension of the mechanism and a revision of its parameters, the situation could worsen in the coming months, and farmers are prepared to take protest action.
