“Questa Pac impoverirà agricoltori e ambiente”

"Pac: se l’Europa soffre di sindrome bipolare"

The Common Agricultural Policy has been one of the most disastrous and controversial European policies for many years, the result has impoverished farmers, who are now dependant on EU subsidies, producing nothing or seeing their produce discarded. The latest proposals for the next ten years pose a serious threat to biodiversity. These articles throw some clarity on the situation and one Italian MEP Eleonora Evi, explains why she voted against the new proposals.

"Pesticidi illegali on line"

Of the 350,000 tons of pesticides used on European fields every year, 48,300 tons are illegal. Just this year 1346 tons of illegal pesticides have been seized, that's enough to treat all the agricultural land in Germany! This article tells all.

The EU have voted TODAY 23rd October 2020 to decide Europe's agricultural subsidies for the next seven years. We will know soon whether they really intend to follow a green policy of biodiversity or give in to the monoculture corporate lobby. This is incredibly important for our lands. Thanks to Greta Thunberg for mobilising support from her instagram.
