"Stripping away protections against soil erosion and for vulnerable grasslands will not “simplify” farmers lives but expose them further to the escalating climate, nature, and pollution crisis." - Théo Paquet

Farming resilience relies on functioning ecosystems and healthy soils🌱🧑‍🌾

Yet MEPs today voted to remove the few remaining safeguards in the #CAP, failing to protect public interest and the future of EU #FoodAndFarming 🚨

In an increasingly volatile world, the focus should be on building resilience and ensuring that our farmers and food systems can withstand and reverse the impacts of the nature, pollution, and climate crisis whilst delivering high-quality, sustainable food for all.

Join us today at the @euractiv.com Agrifood Policy Conference, where our CAP expert @theopaquet.bsky.social will explore how to boost resilience of EU food and farming, whilst protecting nature, health and farmers' livelihoods 🌱

“Dismantling environmental rules will hinder, not help, farmers: Invest in their resilience” - is the main message to @christophehansen.bsky.social from @birdlifeeurope.bsky.social and other 60 orgs. in the context of the EC "CAP simplification” plans.

Just had two great discussions with farmers from different regions of France.

My main takeaway is that they were very open to dialogue and that we must keep talking to each other.
We have to move away from this constant opposition between civil society and farmers.

3 rooms are created and the partners divide into 3 groups, passing through each room.

📍The rooms discuss stakeholder engagement on an international, national and local level respectively.
