[EUROPARL] Parliament calls for less barriers for young people in farming

[EUROPARL]

European Parliament advocates for removing barriers to access farming for young people.

The resolution on the Generational renewal in the EU farms of the future, adopted on Thursday by 447 votes to 14 and 7 abstentions, warn that demographic decline is more pronounced in rural populations and farmers then in other parts of society. MEPs therefore call for public policies creating fair and dignified income and a quality of life for farmers and their families to encourage generational renewal on EU farms.
