Farmers on frontline as Dutch divided by war on nitrogen pollution
Government's buyout scheme is meeting fierce resistance from farmers in Netherlands.
Veal farmer Wim Brouwer is one of the Netherlands' peak polluters, due to the nitrogen excreted each year by his 1,360 calves.
His business sits in one of the most intensively farmed parts of Europe's most intensively farmed country, a huge exporter with more than 110 million livestock, including cattle, chickens and pigs.
Nitrogen compound emissions are a big matter in this small, packed country, becoming the dominant political issue over the course of a four-year crisis. Among other impacts, the crisis has hampered crucial housebuilding, because builders need nitrogen permits from a limited supply to cover construction emissions. The crisis has polarised social opinion, spurring the rise of a new rural populist movement and mobilising environmentalists who are desperately concerned about the state of wild habitats.
Brouwer says his farm is carbon neutral, but he fears being a peak polluter means credit lines drying up. As chairman of the local LTO farmers' union branch, he feels strongly for others. "Every 14 days, a farmer in the Netherlands brings an end to their life. If a healthy career lasts for 40 years, we’ve spent 10% of ours living in uncertainty."
A series of supreme court rulings in cases brought by environmentalists have brought the Netherlands to a standstill over pollution. Nitric oxide (NO) and nitrogen dioxide (NO2) from transport, and ammonia from farming, are negatively affecting EU-protected nature reserves, in breach of EU law.
Dutch farmers pollution buy-out ruling goes live

Farmers on frontline as Dutch divided by war on nitrogen pollution
Government's buyout scheme is meeting fierce resistance from farmers in Netherlands.
Veal farmer Wim Brouwer is one of the Netherlands' peak polluters, due to the nitrogen excreted each year by his 1,360 calves.
His business sits in one of the most intensively farmed parts of Europe's most intensively farmed country, a huge exporter with more than 110 million livestock, including cattle, chickens and pigs.
Nitrogen compound emissions are a big matter in this small, packed country, becoming the dominant political issue over the course of a four-year crisis. Among other impacts, the crisis has hampered crucial housebuilding, because builders need nitrogen permits from a limited supply to cover construction emissions. The crisis has polarised social opinion, spurring the rise of a new rural populist movement and mobilising environmentalists who are desperately concerned about the state of wild habitats.
Brouwer says his farm is carbon neutral, but he fears being a peak polluter means credit lines drying up. As chairman of the local LTO farmers' union branch, he feels strongly for others. "Every 14 days, a farmer in the Netherlands brings an end to their life. If a healthy career lasts for 40 years, we’ve spent 10% of ours living in uncertainty."

Government's buyout scheme is meeting fierce resistance from farmers in Netherlands.
Veal farmer Wim Brouwer is one of the Netherlands' peak polluters, due to the nitrogen excreted each year by his 1,360 calves.
His business sits in one of the most intensively farmed parts of Europe's most intensively farmed country, a huge exporter with more than 110 million livestock, including cattle, chickens and pigs.
Nitrogen compound emissions are a big matter in this small, packed country, becoming the dominant political issue over the course of a four-year crisis. Among other impacts, the crisis has hampered crucial housebuilding, because builders need nitrogen permits from a limited supply to cover construction emissions. The crisis has polarised social opinion, spurring the rise of a new rural populist movement and mobilising environmentalists who are desperately concerned about the state of wild habitats.
Brouwer says his farm is carbon neutral, but he fears being a peak polluter means credit lines drying up. As chairman of the local LTO farmers' union branch, he feels strongly for others. "Every 14 days, a farmer in the Netherlands brings an end to their life. If a healthy career lasts for 40 years, we’ve spent 10% of ours living in uncertainty."
A series of supreme court rulings in cases brought by environmentalists have brought the Netherlands to a standstill over pollution. Nitric oxide (NO) and nitrogen dioxide (NO2) from transport, and ammonia from farming, are negatively affecting EU-protected nature reserves, in breach of EU law.

Ash Amirahmadi: 'This is the source: this is where it all really happens.'
The giant dairy co-op’s managing director is absorbed in his industry, even as it faces steep cost and market price challenges.
The boss of Arla Foods in the UK - to which a third of Britain's milk producers belong - appears at home in wellies and a tweed jacket on a farm, even if in recent years he's more likely to be found in a boardroom, negotiating milk prices with the country's largest supermarkets.

'We have travelled for a month to find grass': climate crisis piles pressure on Senegal’s herders.
Young pastoralists are proud of the tradition they have inherited. But drought, farming and conflict all endanger their lifestyle - and their lives.
Pastoralism in Senegal and the wider Sahel region has changed drastically over recent decades. As well as changing landscapes caused by the climate crisis, herders have been forced to change their routes as more land is used for agriculture.
Migrating herders have longstanding relationships with farmers to whom they sell their products, but competition for land can create tension, with farmers accusing herders of damaging crops.

The continual failure of rains in the north due to climate change has meant that herder communities are moving away from their traditional grounds. southern/central Senegal 21/6/22
