Farmers and winegrowers demand security for the future: Prime Minister in action!

On Wednesday, an important meeting of farmers and winemakers took place in Kirchheimbolanden, attended by Prime Minister Alexander Schweitzer. The atmosphere was tense because the participants made it abundantly clear that the future of many farms was in jeopardy. This concern is taken up by the Farmers and Winegrowers Association of Rhineland-Palatinate (BWV), which presented a comprehensive catalog of demands during the event. Farmers are thus pushing for urgently needed framework conditions to ensure the long-term survival of agricultural and wine-growing businesses.

The focus is on creating perspectives for the next generation. Especially in times when the challenges for agriculture are constantly increasing, it is essential that politicians set the right course. This is the only way to reduce long-term fears about the existence of companies that already concern many farmers and winegrowers.

Demands of the farmers and winegrowers association

The BWV has formulated clear concerns. The first priority is a reduction in bureaucratic requirements and a simplified approval process. This step would be a real relief for many farmers who are currently suffering under the pressure of complicated regulations. The industry's concerns can no longer be ignored; after all, it is about securing the regional food supply.

“We need a good hand from the state government,” said one farmer from the group. The mood is consistently combative. Farmers understand that they must stand together to make their voices heard. Ultimately, this not only affects them personally, but also future generations who want to gain a foothold in agriculture.

Create perspectives

The will to change is palpable. The industry agrees that it is high time to recognize the signs of the times and develop perspectives that will also last in the future. The BWV has compiled further details and developments in its information portal that are important for all interested parties.

In summary, the current situation requires active action. The BWV's concerns are clear and concise; it remains to be hoped that political decision-makers will take the right steps to sustainably support local businesses. This is the only way to keep Rhineland-Palatinate agriculture alive and to create a basis for the next generation.
