Malaysian watermelon producers say they are without government support when they need it most

If help is not forthcoming, producers are announcing protests, warning that today's decision is not only about this year's crop, but also whether domestic watermelon will be produced at all in the coming years. They say that without an urgent response from the state, a recognizable Montenegrin brand will perish on Montenegrin fields, as well as years of work and investment.

While government addresses are calling for the purchase of domestic products, watermelon producers from Malaysia are asking - who will buy theirs?

They claim that they are without support precisely when they need it most.

At the height of the season, a kilogram of watermelon sells for just one cent, while hundreds of tons remain in the fields.

They warn that without an urgent response from the state, they will not be able to save this year's crop, nor production in the coming years.
