Farmers in the Böblingen district: Bureaucracy causes double costs!
In the Böblingen district, the bureaucratic pressure is heavy on farmers. Farmer Hans-Georg Schwarz from Gebersheim, who runs his Falkenhof, is frustrated by the enormous amount of paperwork involved in running his business. Farmers feel pressured by the authorities and complain about the cumbersome and expensive exemptions they need for their vehicles. This bureaucratic effort is perceived as excessively burdensome, especially in southwest Germany krzbb.de reported.
Particular attention is paid to Section 28 of the Road Traffic Act, which regulates “excessive road use”. Appropriate permits are required for agricultural and forestry vehicles that exceed the permitted dimensions or weights. Farmers criticize that the administrative burden and costs for these exemptions are significantly higher in Baden-Württemberg than in other federal states, especially in comparison to Bavaria.
Reducing bureaucracy at the federal level
The National Regulatory Control Council (NKR), which was founded in 2006, is also committed to making bureaucracy prices more transparent. He checks the compliance costs of new laws and ensures that the digital check is carried out for new regulations. Since 2023, ministries have had to prove that they take digital transformation into account in their regulations.
