The German farmers want to take to the streets again.

He again opposed the government’s planned gradual subsidy cuts. “That is why there will continue to be national campaigns,” he said.

Rukwied pointed out that the 2024 budget laws, which include the cuts, have not yet been finally approved by the Bundestag. “The same applies to the budget as to any other law: only when everything has been negotiated to the end will negotiations take place,” said the chairman of the association. About offers from the coalition to relieve farmers elsewhere, for example with help for stable conversions, Rukwied says: “We also have to talk about other topics, but that has to happen afterwards.”

Farmers in Germany had already demonstrated against the cuts in recent weeks. The government subsequently decided against the planned abolition of motor vehicle tax benefits for agricultural companies and extended the cuts to agricultural diesel over time. (SDA)
