Capping the amount of land that one entity can control to 500 hectares will increase the number of farmers and limit land concentration. Agricultural land is a finite resource, needed to feed populations. Essential resources to feed the many can't be controlled by just a few. 🥕
Europe needs a framework to regulate land if it wants to reach climate goals and protect farmers. But what should that framework do and what examples can we already learn from? This #17April, explore the key elements of ECVC's land directive proposal. 👇🏼🧵 #PeasantResistance
"In the face of increased land grabbing and speculation, the @EU_Commission must put a common land governance framework on the political agenda in coming months to ensure a future for farmers and protect the well-being of citizens."

EU needs land reform to stop Big Agri swallowing up small farms

The lack of a European land policy is incoherent with other EU policy goals and plays a major role in future farmers not having access to land. It also contributes to loss of biodiversity, increases agricultural greenhouse emissions and pesticides.

✊But an alternative way exists, it's called 20 million small/medium farms in 2040 and agroecology!
