Reactions to the purchase price of hazelnuts continue: another producer cuts down his trees
Reactions to the hazelnut price announced by AKP Chairman Recep Tayyip Erdogan remain at 82.5 lira.
A new one has been added to producers who cut hazelnuts in their orchards in response to the price of hazelnuts in the Perşembe district of Ordu and Alaplı district of Zonguldak.
A farmer named Hasan Bodur from the Özlükent neighborhood of Ordu’s Kabadüz district cut down the trees in his garden as hazelnut harvesting continued in the region.
“DO NOT VOTE THE AK PARTY ANYMORE”
Complaining about rising costs, workers’ money and the price of hazelnuts, Bodur said: “The AKP cut down our orchard. They said: plant hazelnuts and millet, and the money came to him. I will cut and plant corn. We did not get the value of our hazelnuts. We couldn’t get our product, even if it was crazy, it didn’t make any money. A price of 82.5 TL was given. That’s how I cut it. So it’s no longer necessary,” he said.
Hazelnut farmer Bodur said: “Don’t vote for the AKP government yet” and added: “They finished us.” They sold us to foreign countries. The price of this hazelnut abroad is from 250 to 300 lire. Here it is 82 lire. He cut the hazelnuts saying, “It doesn’t cost 82 lira, we only get 65 lira.”
