AM: Hungary issues a separate opinion on the European Commission’s Farm-to-Table strategy
It was emphasized that agriculture should contribute to climate and environmental goals, but meeting the targets set in the strategy imposes a disproportionate burden on Member States.
According to the Hungarian position, a 50% reduction in the amount of chemical plant protection products, in addition to the reduction already implemented, and an increase in the share of areas affected by organic farming to 25% are overly ambitious. Reducing the use of pesticides and fertilizers must take into account the different situations in the Member States and the efforts made so far, they wrote. (MTI)
