HRK 3.2 billion has been invested in Vukovar-Srijem County and that has to contribute to progress because farmers themselves in the county are investing in developing their own projects, she said.

Vođinci municipal head Martin Kordić said that the kindergarten will admit 70 children and that it intends to employ another 5 teachers and a cleaner.
