Please help European farmers
>not growing your own food
But that way our proud farmers will suffer even more we cannot have that
But then you will become the farmer.
*applies for EU money to buy John Deeres*
nothing wrong with that, it's a useful investment
you don't like eating and drinking?
Shouldn't you be blocking the Paris peripherique with your tractor for more money?
I really should.
>*applies for EU money to buy John Deeres*
Based.
Do European farms actually make money? Profit margins are extremely tight here, the only reason most farms even exist is because of the billions of subsidies we give them. Every time there's any sort of economic impact (trade war, depression, natural disaster, etc) they just close for good.
Is that Stefan Lofvens dad
>Do European farms actually make money?
Majority of Dutch millionaires are farmers. They're just gigantic subsidies machines, it doesn't compare to any industry in the world.
Not according to them though
One of the EU's founding causes was to protect inefficient French farmers.
POWERFUL STATEMENT BY DUTCH FARMER
A Dutch farmer made a very powerful statement by dumping potatoes in front of a distribution centre of a supermarket. The farmer was angry the potatoes didn't sell due to lower demand (most Dutch potatoes are turned into fries sold at restaurants) so he dumped the potatoes in protest of them not buying the potatoes.
If they can't sell fries at the moment what are they meant to do, pay him for produce they won't use just because?
Read this. The EU is pretty much 50% politics and 50% straight up farm subsidies.
Few people know it but farms are by far the largest EU budget. It's more than what they give all the Eastern-Euros or even the money used to bail out Greece.
support the farmer !!!!
Fuck farmers
t. Groenlinks sojajongen
Right wingers hate them the most here I think. At least the urban FvD/VVD voters.
*ruins your entire landscape*
"that would be 60% of your budget but you won't even have my products for free"
But Thierry and Wilders were supporting farmers hard on Twitter.
For votes perhaps. I know FvD'ers and they're all hardcore free marketeers that consider themselves to be some sort of apex male because they have a HBO/University degree.
>thank you for all those funds EU, guess I'll buy a few tractors and let them rot in that field over there
Why do farmers struggle so much? Food is something we all need, there should be a huge demand
According to farmers it's due to a complicated mix of
- foreigners
- leftists
- the EU
- the government
stupid farmers
don't they know you can just get frozen veggise at the store
their job is outdated there is no point
They will all go bankrupt when the free trade deals go live, you'd just be delaying the inevitable
Do subsidy polyp farmers actually blame the EU and natgovs that subsidise them? But why?
The beauty of Spanish ham must not perish from the earth. Pay up, swamp kraut.
EU allows for free trade meaning dirty foreigners can undercut their subsidized products (despite majority of Dutch food is exported)
EU is also demonic organization that sometimes in order to make trade deals allowing for everything European (from food to cars) to be exported doesn't make sure foreigners cannot ship their food here.
As for the leftists they hate farmers for being hardworking and good people with their complaints about farms being economically unviable and a huge strain on our ecology in an already overcrowded small country. Obviously they are wrong because farmers are good.
Government: filthy parasites not giving them enough taxpayers money
My uncles horse is eating the kale....
Why live?
