European farming groups and green NGOs slam EU fertilizer plan

摘要

European farming groups have slammed a communication issued by the European Commission to tackle the current fertilizer crisis in the continent, claiming that it does not provide short-term solutions. On Wednesday (9 November), hours after the EU’s farming chief Janusz Wojciechowski unveiled the fertilizer plans, Copa-Cogeca – Europe’s leading farming organization – issued a statement criticizing the document for falling short on new policy proposals.
