Chisinau, Dec. 18 /MOLDPRES/- Government today approved a draft law on financing, managing and monitoring agricultural policy. The new law will ensure a more efficient system of providing financial support to the agricultural sector, which will contribute to increasing the sector's competitiveness, sustainable development of the rural environment and combating climate change, the government's communication department has reported.
