🇪🇺 Commissioner for Agriculture and Food | former Member of the @europarl_en and former Member of @ChambreLux 🇱🇺
Pleased to see the broad support in the @europarl.europa.eu today for our proposal to better protect farmers from unfair trading practices across borders.

A clear step towards fairer food supply chains.
Deal ! 🇪🇺 A major step to protect farmers & suppliers from unfair trading practices

Now we must match ambition with action: only strong, consistent enforcement across borders will make this fairness in the food supply chain real for those who feed Europe

Good news for farmers and the environment 🌱 RENURE is now a reality: turning processed manure into a safe fertiliser alternative ♻️

That means less reliance on imports, more circularity, and real savings on farm inputs.

Good debate today on #NRPP
Joint planning makes sense to support farmers & rural areas: better synergies & investments

But let’s be clear #CAP remains distinct with its own role & tools
Because 👨‍🌾 do not farm in budgetary cycles

Next step: finish MFF negotiations on time for national plans

Glad to be back in Germany 🇩🇪 discussing the road ahead with the @bundestag.de Agri Committee
