Spoiler - It looks like solving an impossible equation with 3⃣ unknowns: #Naturerestoration, #deforestation & #IED !

#Fertiliser markets are in crisis in 🇪🇺 and the @EU_Commission has announced it will present a communication on the topic on 9 November. Here is a thread to understand 1⃣) why it matters and 2⃣) what are the ins and outs of this crisis from the farmers' point of view 1/10

Following our IED farm visit with @FWAgriculture, MEP @BenoitLutgen said "It's totally unreasonable to include the agricultural sector in this directive and to consider a Walloon farm such as these on par with industries like Arcelor Mittal."

🚨@COPACOGECA 2022 cereals production forecasts are out:

2022 cereal harvest should reach 277 million tonnes in 🇪🇺.

📉This would be 4.4% lower than in 2021, and 3.8% below the multiannual average of 288 million tonnes.

As of 2020, more than 1⃣2⃣0⃣0⃣0⃣ articles were written on #culturedmeat while only 3⃣0⃣0⃣ academic publications were published about this technology. A disconnection rarely observed.

📝What do academic debates actually say about #culturedmeat ?

[COPA-COGECA @COPACOGECA]

Following yesterday's @EU_Commission publication of the Sustainable Use Regulation (SUR) on he use of pesticides, we pointed out that the ambition of the proposed targets contrasts with the little information on the solutions and alternatives.

Nordic & Baltic farmers on the #SUD proposal: different starting points must be taken into account when setting PPP reduction targets. We are among the most sustainable users of PPP & our reduction potential is therefore limited.

[Roomet Sõrmus @roomet_sormus]

@VDombrovskis thank you for maintaining your common sence and standing up for fair conditions in #SUR for all farmers in the EU. Reductions in PPP use must be made in a fair and science-based way to make the #EUGreenDeal successful.

[Zemnieku saeima @ZemniekuSaeima]

Deepest gratitude towards commissioner @VDombrovskis and his office for spectacular job and effort put into defending fair rules among EU farmers as well as doing the best possible for maintaining competitiveness of EU farming sector during these difficult times. 👏🍎

10/10 Is there any other way to store carbon today? 🤔

✅YES There are other available technical alternatives

❎BUT none of these options can store carbon as naturally nor as efficiently as farming while producing food at the same time!

9/10 Is carbon farming the silver bullet?🤔

1⃣Carbon farming is only part of the solution in the fight against #climatechange 👉 Reducing and avoiding emissions must remain a priority for all.

2⃣There are still barriers to the development of carbon farming in 🇪🇺

5/10 Most carbon farming practices have either direct or indirect costs for 👩‍🌾👨‍🌾

For carbon farming to become popular, benefits must outweigh the costs.

This is why market approaches and policy interventions matter to secure a fair carbon price for 🇪🇺 farmers!
