When climate disasters hit, Europe stands with its farmers. Today, we’re delivering €56 million in emergency support to farmers in 🇵🇹 🇷🇴 🇨🇾 🇭🇷 🇸🇮
With extreme weather becoming the new normal for too many farmers, 🇪🇺 solidarity must go hand in hand with investment in resilience
I welcome today's final approval by @Europarl_EN of our agreement to strengthen farmers' position in the agrifood supply chain.
This means:
🧑🌾 fairer conditions for farmers
🤝 stronger producer organisations
🥩 better protection of meat-cut-related terms
Europe delivers! 🌾🇪🇺
Harvests need farmers. Farmers need fertilisers.
I propose €540 million in EU support for farmers hit by ↗️ fertiliser costs — possibly rising to €1.5 billion with national co-financing.
Europe will always back those who feed us.

This #WorldBeeDay we send a clear message: transparency matters. 🐝🍯

🌾Food security starts with fertiliser security
For farmers, fertilisers can mean the difference between a harvest and no harvest at all
Across Europe, rising energy prices are ↗️input costs for farmers. This is not just a farming issue. It’s a food security issue for all of us
