( CNN ) -- The European Union on Wednesday agreed to pay 210 million euros ( $ 307 million ) to farmers who suffered losses due to the E.coli outbreak that has killed at least 25 people , mostly in Germany . The figure is up considerably from the 150 million euros EU agriculture officials proposed Tuesday , and Dacion Ciolos , the EU 's agriculture commissioner , said that figure may change again . `` This envelope will enable us to respond to the compensation requests for the period from the 26th of May through to the end of June , '' Ciolos said . `` We will then take stock of the situation and see whether we need to adjust these figures . '' Farmers in several European countries are seeking to be paid back for losses they suffered after being wrongly blamed for the outbreak . Farmers who grow cucumbers , tomatoes , peppers , zucchini and lettuce will be eligible to receive up to 50 percent of the average market price they would have received , based on figures from 2008-2010 , the EU said . Some producers could get up to 70 percent of market prices when funds from EU-supported producer organizations are included , Ciolos said . The planned settlement still needs to be accepted by EU member states on June 14 , Ciolos said . Spain alone has sought more than 400 million euros ( $ 600 million ) in lost farm exports of cucumbers , tomatoes and other produce from the past few weeks , and farmers in Belgium , France , Holland and even Germany say they have millions in losses , too . The death toll from the outbreak rose to 25 on Wednesday as German health authorities confirmed two more E.coli fatalities there . All but one of the 25 were in Germany , while the remaining victim died in Sweden after a having visited Germany . Local officials in the German state of Lower Saxony said another man , aged 73 , also died , but he had other health problems as well , so they are not certain his death was due to E. coli . There are a total 2,648 cases of E. coli infection in Germany , according to the Robert Koch Institute , Germany 's top health authority . But Health Minister Daniel Bahr said Wednesday the number of new cases of infection has been falling significantly . There have also been a handful of infections in a dozen other European countries , but they appear to be linked to northern Germany . The cause of the 10-day-old crisis still has not been conclusively identified . There was no trace of E. coli in a pack of bean sprouts in a household in Hamburg , where a man had become infected , health authorities there told CNN Tuesday . The sprouts came from the farm which officials believe could be the source of the outbreak . But initial tests showed no sign of E. coli there , agriculture officials in the German state of Lower Saxony said Monday . But authorities said that does not mean their suspicions were wrong ; they would not expect to find evidence of E. coli if the tainted sprouts were no longer in the supply chain . And Wednesday , Lower Saxony agriculture officials said three workers at the suspect farm had diarrhea in early May and at least one has been diagnosed with the dangerous strain of E.coli . Authorities have also found that a cafeteria in the town of Cuxhaven , where 18 people came down with the infection , had also received sprouts from the farm in question , said Natascha Manski , a spokeswoman for the state agriculture ministry . CNN 's Frederik Pleitgen in Berlin and David Wilkinson in London contributed to this report .
