Episode Synopsis


This week, EURACTIV’s agrifood team brings you the latest on the Commission’s plans for a fertilisers communication, and why this falls short of the strategy called for by stakeholders and we explore how the EU’s plans to relax green measures in farming fell short of expectations. We also take a deep dive into what is going on in the Netherlands, where farmers continue to protest, with the help of Dutch farmer Iris Bouwers, BirdLife Europe’s Ariel Brunner and associate professor of food and agricultural policy, Jeroen Candel.
