      It's not, it's a globo power play. They destroy domestic food production, they steal food from overseas, and anyone in Europe that wants to eat is now totally dependent on them. Come forth chip implants, come forth the boogz and the pods. Thing is, for that to happen both their foreign and domestic policy must work. And the prior ain't going too well to say the least.

      Rather a perfect example of politicians' and their lobbyists' (Or is it lobbyists and their politicans?) reality being decoupled from yours/ours. It's not like this whole thing isn't working out just because it doesn't do so in our favour. Leads to the question who benefits in what way and who pays for their gains. Leads to questionig who's represented by elected representitives and so on and so forh.
      Nevermind, this whole new global experiment sold to us as progress is totally based on oil. So #juststopoil? No! Use it up and let's find out who is favoured by mother nature. Managers, laweyers, politicans or folks who know how to produce food and live of the land? What would have happened to mankind if the stoneage would have run out of stones?
      But for now, rest asured. No need to worry about deep state in a union deep enough to render states mere vasalls.

      And NOW with the Ukraine situation, the food supply/market problems are going to be even worse, since it's yet another place Europe will not be able to get much grain and other agriculture products. To do these radical "environmental" measures when Europe already has that destructive crisis ongoing is nothing short of INSANITY. As an American, I sometimes wonder if our government and the EU governments (along with Canada) are playing a game of "See Who Can Destroy Their People the Fastest". There is absolutely no logic anymore.

      Very true, but how do you think we in the Netherlands get the food that feeds our livestock? That's right: our country is way to small to grow all the crops needed to feed our enormous livestock. That is why we import mindboggling amounts of soy and corn from places like Brazil where they burn down entire rainforests just to grow the soy we use to feed our animals with.

    As an agricultural researcher, and someone who still farms, it amazes me how governments fail to link food security to farming. People really don’t like paying twice as much for food.

Politicians are trying to ruin our sector with bad decisions and ultimatums. The protests we held did little to nothing to deter our government from driving us into extinction and, as you said, are pushing to decrease our numbers instead of letting us innovate.

The future of our sector looks bleak so we need all the help we can get, not just in the Netherlands but the rest of Europe and the world aswell.

      @@MACHOMISTERYMAN at the present in Romania we import 80% of the pork meat we eat, 50% potatoes, eggs, apples in Romania a country that was traditionally in agriculture, animals...
      In 1997 our govt loaned 350 millions from the World Bank. One of the condition was that Romania privatizes or closea over 1000 state owen food production units. Those units were partly supported be state so the reasoning was that the state should not lose money. But the state lost far less money then when lots of food were produced in Ro and where it needed to compensate a part of the cost than now when we pay almost 100% of the cost to producing units outside our country.
      We closed those and now we are not able to feed ourselves. But the big retailers "saved us". They came with Wester suppliers, with low quality food subsidized by states like yours, way above Ro's subsidezes and made unfair competition. As we were poorer in Romania people often went for the lowest price. These retailers who are selling maybe 80% of total merchandise in Ro, as they already had suppliers, they ask for very low prices from local suppliers. If Ro producers want to enter big retailers in Ro, they have to obbey the conditions. Our milk producers are close to bankruptcy but the prices in the shops are very big, from what we are told close to maximum in EU.
      When we entered EU, the EU set us to be a raw material supplier and consumer of finished goods. This is the situation now. For example Spain is the biggest buyer of Ro corn but the biggest provider of pork meat in Ro. They buy our corn, send it to Spain and then sell it back with lower prices than we have. That is possible only with subsidizes and a low quality of meat. I don't know what tomatoes you have, but what we have at big retailers are shit. They don't compare with tomatoes from our peasants and even they don't have the same seeds as in the past.
      A few years ago there was a double standard issue with retailers selling goods with etiquets identical to those from W but with different compositions. They had to modify it so they have a low cost so that locals can afford it. It was, maybe still is an issue in the entire EE.
      One more info, last year we had a trade deficit of over 22 billiin eur with EU countries, Holand had excedent 328 billion. The EU is rigged.
      Even with the Uk grains, big traders, all foreingers are prioritizing Uk grains in Ro as it is cheaper, lowet quality, and it also forces Ro, Bg, Po...m farmers to sell their grains cheaper.
      EU needs to change, but the old states oppose as they lose their advantages.
      Holand has 40000kms, Ro 237000, we have much lower costs, better seeds, you should buy food from us, but it's mostly the other way around.

The Netherlands counts all goods that leave it's ports as an export- not really mentioning that most of the exports come from the rest of Europe to get to the Rhine delta. This makes the punitive measures pursued by the NL government supposedly as a means of environmental regulation even more disturbing.

It is unbearable that we in Europe are strangling farming with regulations and in the same time import food that is produced under circumstances we would not accept because it cost less! Especially Ecological farms are suffering under bureaucracy and low prices. We now see many Eco-farms switch to conventional farming. Farming is accused for carbon emissions but at the same time there is a enormous carbon caption potential in farmland soil. Farming without bovine cattle is in this aspect unefficient. With cows and grass-farming you can capture co2 into the soil with elevating the rate of organic matter.

    The solution of ‘just import it’ is incredibly short sighted and a quick way to expensive food prices. If the exporting country knows you can’t feed your population, then they can charge whatever they like for their produce.

    Farming in the Netherlands is so big because of policy after the hunger winter of 1945. Never again hunger was the slogan. People tend to forget and history repeats....

    • @bertvdl1178
      @bertvdl1178 ปีที่แล้ว +3

      True but currently in the Netherlands the issue with the current agricultural situation is not the farmers themselves, but the livestock industry and the policies that support it. Here are some key points to consider:
      1. **Land use**: In the Netherlands, 76% of agricultural land is used to feed farmed animals, which has significant environmental consequences
      2. **Export**: 80% of the livestock products are exported, while the local people and environment suffer from the consequences of intensive livestock farming
      3. **Environmental impact**: Livestock farming contributes to air pollution, water pollution, and the production of large amounts of waste, leading to unpleasant odors and other negative effects
      4. **Subsidies**: The European Union provides substantial financial support to farmers, with nearly a fifth of the EU's total budget going to livestock farming[2]. This support often drives environmental damage and fails to provide broader social benefits[5].
      5. **Lack of reform**: Despite the known issues with livestock farming, the EU's Common Agricultural Policy (CAP) has not set targets for reducing livestock numbers or significantly shifted its focus towards more sustainable practices[1][3].
      To address these issues, it is crucial to reevaluate the policies and subsidies that support livestock farming. Redirecting funds towards more sustainable practices, such as extensive livestock farming, ecologically responsible methods, and predominantly plant-based diets, could help mitigate the negative impacts of the current system[6]. Additionally, incentivizing fruit and vegetable production could promote healthier and more environmentally friendly food choices[2].

My parents are farmers to be exact beef cattle, its very hard to develop because its hard to meet the requirements to get some money. Dairy farms have it fairly easier. That's not the only problem, my father says that many farms in the region could close, because there is no one to take over the farms after their parents, the farms will be sold out and only old buildings will be left of what was a prospering farm in the future. It's stupid what the EU does and it will destroy a lot of farms.

    Food has to grow somewhere. It is beter to grow food loccaly in stead of depending on long, fragile and energy consuming suply lines. From an environmental point of view it is better too because of many reasons. We of course should strive for making farming more sustainable (but not through the current way of not effective but costly regulations) but importing food from somewhere else like countries that have little to no environmental rules for use of chemicals that aren't allowed in europe anymore and for a good reason. One important note for durable agriculture is that it should be a land based production and not an increasingly capital based production that only makes farmers more dependent on big corp because of debt.

    FAKE...EU is food NET exporter and not counting Russia and Ukraine, which are big food producers... at the top. Currently in the ports of Europe there are columns of grain trucks that are about to leave for the rest of the world, the columns are because maritime transport cannot cope and has to wait. When you think about shortages of food, think about niche things, things that Karens and the woke eat but but no one will die of hunger - Shipping manager , MSC.

    Probably the stupidest thing a country can do is to reduce local production of primary goods. Especially for ecological purposes. But we all know by now this has nothing to do with ecology.

    U.K. here and those in charge are in discussions on livestock headcount limits , no clue what that will be but I have no doubt it’s coming , thing is there are huge areas of land already out of or doing little agricultural production , where we are it’s about half of land that used to produce something and now produces nothing , so who has done the calculations that say reducing farming will cut so called greenhouse gas emissions, my eyes are not capable of seeing said gasses as they are invisible to humans but what is visible tells me adding productive land to the already present unproductive land will make no fucking difference , somebody somewhere cannot use their eyes and is shit at sums

    The guy from the Netherlands, is 💯 right. I’m for going green and support the farmers, cause I would like to have my own small farm one day, don’t have to pick one over the other. There are techniques that are becoming popular where you plant supporting vegetation that complement each other in a earth healthy way

    Hello, my name is Genadi and I am a farmer from Bulgaria. Let me show you how things are in our country in the agricultural sector, Europe controls the purchase price of our production,
    this price has been decreasing over the last 10 years, at the same time all the preparations, techniques, and fuel are becoming more expensive, which makes us strive to have more production per acre to be able to cover the additional costs, this includes the geomodified seeds that are really harmful for consumption when the price of grain falls and the cost of cultivation rises they sell us these geomodified seeds to cover the additional costs and at the end of the day those who want us to produce quality food sell us themselves and they force us to use poor quality, the situation is really very bad, and the worst thing is that they come up with the excuse that they don't force us to buy these toxic seeds, but in reality, if we do not do it, we will lose our ability to put bread on the table for our children.

    Bullsh... farming was always consolidating, larger companies create larger, more efficient production, that is why small business is getting bankrupt, they just can't sustain the same level of efficiency and cheap prices. Businesses are not museum pieces, they are parts of the economy we all depend upon, so there is no reason to try to preserve traditional farming practices, they would be preserved if there is demand.
