As part of the Russian ban on EU imports for the next 12 months , Spanish fruit and vegetables will be affected .It has been decided that the excess fruit and veggies will be donated to charity . Brussels has also agreed to alleviate losses resulting from the ban with an 125 million cash allocation .The ban arrived just as fruit and vegetable production peaked and the money will help to stabilise prices and also compensate growers who lack storage options or alternatives to the now closed Russian borders .All growers will be eligible to take up this support .Grants will be available between now and November . Last year Spain exported 337 million euros worth to Russia .Between January and May it was about 107 million euros .So there is a large shortfall . A spokesperson felt that it was the European market which needed more protecting than the Russian one .It is highly likely that Russians will not be happy either as they will miss out on many products . It has also been said that national governments will have to participate in the recompensing of growers , not just the EU .
