Farmers end blockade of roads in northern Vojvodina
17:25 SUBOTICA, Aug 9 (Tanjug) - The Subotica Farmers' Association late on Friday decided to end a blockade of roads in northern Vojvodina and border crossings towards Hungary, which they had mounted on Thursday in order to voice their dissatisfaction with the Serbian government's decisions aimed at alleviating damage caused by drought.
Association President Arpad Kis told Tanjug that the decision to end the blockade had followed several-hour talks with Serbian Deputy Premier Jozsef Kasza, who called for a break until Thursday when new government measures aimed at alleviating damage caused by drought would be made public.
