The goals of the program, via FT, are to: Cut the use of chemical and hazardous pesticides by 50% by 2030 Reduce fertiliser use by 20% by 2030 Lower by 50% the sales of antimicrobials for farmed animals and in aquaculture Increase the amount of land devoted to organic farming to 25% in 2030 from 9.1% in 2020 Bigger livestock farms to comply with clean air and water regulations that apply to heavy industry That said, farmers have banded together – and thanks to organized, well-funded campaigns, EU governments have softened their tone over what is becoming a new battleground over green ambitions.
