On April 16, 2020, the Serbian government adopted a decree to provide additional support to farmers. It is announced that the sum of the aid would be $25.5 million. Farmers are not satisfied with this amount and are saying that this will not be sufficient to assist them to overcome the economic impact of the coronavirus on their businesses. On March 31, a full program of economic measures was adopted by the government to address farmers’ concerns regarding the virus. The combined value of these two measures is $5.85 billion and went into effect on April 13.
