Quoted: I would want to have them define "small" farm. These might be 1-5 acres, and all of them combined might not have the output of a single medium sized farm in the US. View Quote I don't think most people here understand how small the Netherlands is, how crowded it is, or how intensive their production is. There's nothing comparable like it in the US. They aren't Sri Lanka, these issues should be quite easy to work out. The really stupid part of this is the treaty trying to "preserve" anything in the Netherlands, which is all influenced by millennia of human activity already. The goal should be improvement to better meet human needs. Top-down edicts are always problematic. |

Quoted: Lake Erie had a algae bloom that caused the water intakes to be shut of briefly for a couple cities. They blamed it on nitrogen run off from agriculture View Quote Which is bullshit. Yes, a portion comes from ag. But a whole bunch comes from runoff from residential lawn treatment and untreated sewage from outdated and poorly run civic treatment systems - yes, untreated sewage is still dumped into waterways on a regular basis. |

View Quote EPA sued the fuck out of Akron, and they’re spending upwards of a billion dollars to curb raw sewage dumping by.......a whopping 10% You read that right , 10 , ten percent .

Quoted: The number is about 750 farms that wil be forces to close but they do get about 120-150% of their value as compensation. To be honest I myself would love my house to eminent domain'ed but I get that some people don't want that. View Quote They get 120% to 150% of what the government determines the value is, and in return they lose their ability to earn money in the future. What a deal. |

No mostly the expert determined value is already about +10% of the market value. You really get a pretty good deal financially but it sucks for those that want to keep the farm as afarm (technically you can stil live there but can't raise farm animals or crops.

Quoted: Why are we fucking with food production? View Quote Climate change n shit. As one of Europe’s most prominent farming nations, half of the Netherlands’ emissions come from agricultural activity. |

This is a big deal and it’s coming to America. Look into Biden’s 30 by 30 plan.
Also lots of people in this thread said the Dutch farmers would do nothing. Have you guys not watched the news? The Dutch farmers have been protesting and shutting down cities for a year now. I’m a American farmer and I can tell you this country will be fucked by 2030. If you’re not producing your own food you should start now. |

That’s exactly what Venezuela did! And now they can’t grow their own food for the last 2 decades. Talk about history repeating itself. Communisms first goal is starvation. Well, 2nd to taking the guns. Then comes starvation. |

Farmers have lots of equipment to dig tank traps, tiger pits, string concertina wire, and otherwise create area denial...Diesel and other chemicals, etc. Preparation is the key.

View Quote It’s the loss of a livelihood. It’s the loss of the land. It’s the loss of a particular lifestyle that non-farmers will never understand. It’s the loss of family history.
