It appears that the EU wants to 'reduce fertilizer use', they also want people to starve

Otherwise, why would you want to not only shut farms down, but try to force the farmers not to farm somewhere else?
It was unclear before this week whether the EU would permit such a scheme, as it could have potentially fallen afoul of regulations surrounding state aid or subsidies. However, Brussels said that the plans were “necessary and appropriate” as they met the broader goals of the European Green Deal.

“The positive effects transcend any distortions of the free market,” the statement added.
...
Should the plan go ahead, it would not only be a major blow for the farming industry in the Netherlands, which is one of the most productive in Europe but could potentially impact other nations as well, given that part of the condition of the buyout scheme is that the Dutch farmers would be prohibited from moving to other countries and starting up farms abroad, meaning that their knowledge and expertise would be squandered. ...
Responding to the announcement from the EU, Dutch political commentator Eva Vlaardingerbroek said: “This is how they do it: they put a knife to the farmers’ throats. They make sure they don’t get their licenses renewed, they’re plaguing them with new rules & restrictions every day and then offer them a bride, knowing many will take it out of pure desperation. It’s all so vile.”

“I also highly doubt that prohibiting them to start over elsewhere in the EU is even legal. The whole idea of the EU was supposed to be about freedom of movement and freedom of workers. This is some next-level USSR stuff,” Vlaardingerbroek added.

Well, they're a bunch of Stalin & Commissars wannabes, so not surprising.

There is a dire need for ropes and tall lampposts and trees.

Not just the EU. The criminals in power would like to cut America's population in half....or less.

One day they will want lower oxygen consumption, and order all the peons to breath only 50% of the time.

This is nuts! People have to eat, if farmers don't grow the food we all know what happen.
Why would a government force farmers not to grow food? Didn't Stalin do that once way back in the day?
This is the road to starvation....

FWIW since the ice sheets receded 10,000 years ago it has been both warmer and colder and life was better (more food) when it was warm.

Hanging's too good for them. Brick them up inside a wall, leaving one tiny opening to pass in their 500 calories a day diet.

They won't starve if they eat bugs like they are told or eat the globalists. Its their choice.
