May 17 (SeeNews) - The World Bank and the European Union will grant Kosovo 10 million euro ($10.8 million) for irrigation systems investments in June, agriculture minister Faton Peci said on Wednesday.
“In order to address the sector's challenges as efficiently as possible, the World Bank as an important partner continues to support our country through financial instruments and technical assistance," agriculture minister Faton Peci said in a social media post, following a meeting with Massimiliano Paolucci, World Bank country manager for Kosovo and North Macedonia.
