📌#Deforestation law must be delayed. It threatens the supply of animal feed and the trade of many consumer goods. “The European Commission must take enough time to fix the many problems with the legislation,” says Herbert Dorfmann. 🔗Read more: epp.group/yixr5mlm

The decision taken by the European Commission to postpone the implementation of the Deforestation Regulation was my first request to President Ursula von der Leyen for the new term. That has confirmed our effort to strengthen the European agriculture. Let’s work for less red tape. EPP Group

We missed Herr Prof. Strohschneider today in AGRI! Wasted the chance to give democratic legitimacy to the Strategic Dialogue. He was paid enough, he should have been here in person, leading the debate with MEPs. #comAgr #EPP Veronika Vrecionová

Very pleased that Commissioner-Designate #CHansenEU answered my key questions in the Hearing on the need for a strong budget and on simplification in agricultural policy.

💡Herbert Dorfmann "Today we are seeing more and more distance between the very rich and the poor. A modern concept of social economy would be heavily needed to address this & cooperatives can be a very important tool for this."
