Informal #AGRIFISH Council is really turning up the cuteness 🐮 #EU2024BE

Something is rotten in the state of Brussels #AGRIFISH

The European Union agricultural ministers meeting in Luxembourg ( #AGRIFISH ) showed strong support for an EU-wide ban on fur farming. Led by Austria, Germany, and the Netherlands, the majority favored the ban 18 to 4, with 3 abstentions. #FurFreeEurope 🚫🦊

Can you imagine that this is a farm not an apartment?

This is a factory farm in China housing 2.1 million pigs.

What's your thoughts on factory farming?

This new initiative will bring together farmers & other stakeholders to develop a shared vision for the future.

Today, 🇪🇺 #Agrifish ministers discuss the future (de)regulation of #newGMOs : will they remain grown & marketed with safety checks and labelling, or not?

A deregulation would put nature, consumers’ & farmers’ rights at risk. A short thread🧵👇

At today’s informal #AGRIFISH meeting, we focus on the EU’s open strategic autonomy on proteins.
Our discussion will touch on a number of crucial issues: reducing our import dependencies, reinforcing sustainability, & ensuring the role of livestock in a circular economy.

Some facts following the incorrect claims about #CultivatedMeat presented by Austria at the last #AGRIFISH Council meeting.

Fundamentally, cultivated meat is an innovative solution to producing meat without animal suffering.

Speaking to farmers and their representatives in 🇧🇪 on the package of proposals to reduce administrative burdens for farmers and reinforce fairness in the food supply chain, at the margins of informal #AGRIFISH meeting.

First days of the informal #agrifish council of the EU agricultural ministers in Hasselt, filled with farm visits today!
Theme: Strategic Autonomy of the European Union.

A central role for young farmers is vital in this strategy! CEJA Young Farmers

Protecting the European Eel is not a standard job. The Eel Regulation found a way out in 2007 – but 15 years later, much time has been lost in polarised debates. We call upon the #AgriFish Council to adopt #EelDeal2030 : all countries minimal protection by 2030, at the latest.

Before tomorrow's #AGRIFISH Council, nine EU agriculture ministers sent a special note on the wolf.

They already lobby (!) to lower the protection status of not only the wolf but other large carnivores too.

Instead of establishing a closure, pressures go towards fishing more

🤔 How can COPA-COGECA claim they support #EUGreenDeal and then send this letter👇 to Ursula von der Leyen & Alexander De Croo 🇧🇪🇪🇺 - where the only Green Deal measure they support and call for is the one on NGT …? #AGRIFISH
