even as a german i dont understand this meme? diesel subvention is good for the farmers?!?!? A tractor doesnt work with just hot air?
Or does it meant Germany against farmers wanting to lunch government members, because they cut diesel subvention?
I dont know the facts but the meme doesnt make sense for me XD
Which farmers though? As with most german agrar subventions they support large-scale industrial farming while not really benefitting smallholders.
The reasons for the cuts to subvetions are stupid (fuck the debt brake) and they only make sense if they are in tandem with new subventions for ecological farming and direct smallholder support. But as a farmer that is no reason to let your self be used by lobby groups which for years have lobbied for policies which eradicate small farms. The rising production costs are going to be transfered to consumers anyway.
