🔹The Dutch 🇳🇱 gov't is considering plans to restrict cattle numbers to two cows per football pitch-sized field, (“0.35 hectares of grassland per livestock 🐄 unit”) putting them on a collision course with the country’s farmers. The aim is to reduce methane & nitrogen emissions, produced by manure and fertiliser.

🔹Farmers are incensed by the plans to limit their livestock numbers, especially in the south of the Netherlands, where about 3.5 cows per football field graze.

🔹 Talks between the gov't & farmers on reaching a deal to reform Dutch farming 🚜 and reduce agriculture-related 'pollution' will continue in June after efforts this week failed to reach an agreement.

Previous nitrogen policy developments in the Netherlands:

💠 The EU 🇪🇺 has approved 2 schemes (LBV & LBV plus) with a total budget of €1.47 billion euros to compensate farmers for the closure of their holdings.

💠 Over 10,000 Dutch farmers 🚜 protested in The Hague on March 11th against the nitrogen policy.

💠 Dutch farmers protests end in clashes with police 🚓 & arrests.

💠 The Dutch gov't plans to buy & close down, up to 3,000 farms near environmentally sensitive areas.

💠 🇳🇱 Farmers Defence Force, representing 8 agro-organisations, (95% of the industry), locked out of the 1st round of negotiations.

💠 Multiple protests previously erupted over the gov't's draconian nitrogen oxides curbing plan.
