The poor crop which will be reaped this year is causing grave concern among the Jewish farmers in Bessarabia. The Famine Committee created in 1926 is already flooded with requests for help from Jewish farmers who see failure of their crop in the districts of Akermein, Kahul, Ismail, Kishineff and Bender.

The Association of Jewish Cooperatives and the Joint Distribution Committee are taking steps to forestal suffering.
