Štilichová has been the head of the SPF since the end of May, after replacing Gabriela Bartošová, who resigned on May 22, 2021.

The cabinet unexpectedly elected Marosza as the new head of the SPF. In recent weeks, competitions for this position have taken place at the agro-reserve, in which Marosz did not take part. “It simply came to our notice then. The situation at SPF was critical. There will be no further tenders. Although the tenders brought some names, I was not entirely convinced of how they would manage, for example, the media pressure that may be created by groups that have benefited from the critical situation at the SPF so far. But I would like to thank all the participants in the proceedings. But I believe that we have made the right decision and the situation on the fund will significantly improve, “said agronomist Samuel Vlčan on Thursday after the government meeting, adding that he finally agreed with Ján Marosz at the last minute to take office on November 1, 2021 and not from 15 October as stated in the proposal.
