Left call it a hard attack on the farmers, when the requirements on the reduced release of nitrogen brought forward.
It is to be brought forward to the finish line and the whistle of the in the middle of the fight.
so says the Liberal party’s agricultural and fødevareordfører, Erling Bonnesen, after a majority in Parliament on Monday, has entered into an agreement that brings forward a requirement to reduce nitrogen oxide emissions by 3500 tonnes from 2021 to 2020.
– It is a hard attack on the farmers. They must have the playing time, as we have agreed, and it is 2021, says.
As part of the agreement to which the next year established 380.000 hectares of catch crops on the Danish fields.
It is a crop which is typically planted between harvest, which is able to absorb and thus reduce the leaching of nitrogen.
– the Farmers have put markplaner for the coming year, and, therefore, they need now to break your planning up. It gives a lot of inconveniences and hassles.
– It is a bad way to handle it, especially when there was already made an agreement, says Erling Bonnesen.
With the agreement on agriculture from 2015, it was decided, among other things, that agriculture was allowed to prepare significantly more.
in turn, was introduced as voluntary instruments such as wetlands and minivådområder. It is action, which can remove the nitrogen, before it damages the Betxlarge aquatic environment.
Them, farmers have had to apply for to get placed, but according to Erling Bonnesen has the proceedings of public authorities pulled out.
– the Farmers have not been able to get approved their applications, which they have sent into to live up to the agreement, and then they suddenly brought forward the requirements now. It is like getting a one on both sides of the head.
the Government has decided to bring forward the claim, because agriculture has not cut emissions of nitrogen enough during the landbrugspakke, which the previous government agreed with the Danish people’s Party.
In February of this year, showed figures from the Environment and the Danish ministry of Food, agriculture had only found 12 out of the 1451 tonnes of nitrogen, as it had promised to reduce with.
the Then environment and food Jakob Ellemann-Jensen (V) was not satisfied.
– I will say that I cried relatively high, when I heard the number and it was with a lot of profanity.
– It is probably an expression of the frustration and the disappointment I feel in relation to how that is being delivered on the collective instruments, he said to the Berlingske tidende in February.
