Drought in Serbia: Government Finally Acts, But Is It Too Late for Farmers?
Water is Gold, and Animals on Suva Mountain Are Thirsty to Death!
Did you know that animals on Suva Mountain in Serbia are literally on the brink of life because they lack enough water? The Ministry of Agriculture, Forestry and Water Management has finally reacted and urgently sent tanks with drinking water. But wait, that’s not all – it is planned to deliver four tanks daily for the next 15 days! Yes, you read that right, only 15 days of help for animals endangered by the drought that has become our new reality.
Drought as the New Normal – Rivers and Agriculture at Risk
The state of rivers in Serbia is catastrophic. The drought threatens not only animals but also navigation and agriculture. Our experts warn not to count on stable water reserves. This is a serious crisis affecting livestock breeders and farmers across the country. The director of the Agricultural Advisory Service in Niš, Srećko Vukašinović, emphasizes that coordination with local governments and farmers is key, but the situation remains tough.
The Government Claims to Stand with Farmers – But Is It Enough?
Minister Dragan Glamočić has repeatedly stressed that the state must be the first to stand by farmers. Indeed, they are daily on the ground, shoulder to shoulder with those fighting the drought. But is this support enough? Fifteen days of water delivery is a drop in the ocean of problems caused by the drought. Farmers and livestock breeders ask – what next?
What’s Next?
This is not just a problem of Suva Mountain or one part of Serbia. Drought has become our new reality, and the question is how we will cope with it in the future. Will the government manage to provide long-term solutions, or will we continue to watch animals and farmers suffer?
Conclusion
Drought in Serbia is not just a weather event – it’s a wake-up call for all of us. Emergency help in the form of water tanks is only a temporary fix. Serious measures and plans for the future are needed. Meanwhile, animals on Suva Mountain and farmers fight for survival.
