The reason of their complaints is the fact they need the money for the sowing. The majority of watermelons will again end up in Serbia, while a part will also be sold to the Czech Republic, Romania and Slovakia.(Kanal5)Source/Author PressCut

(The ads, though, are from different marketers than the ones in the magazine, which is different than rival Conde Nast’s strategy)
