Ongoing Impact of Farmers’ Protests on Agriculture Policy in Germany

A year after the intense farmers’ protests in Germany, key agricultural issues remain unresolved, despite some governmental concessions. Farmers, led by Deutscher Bauernverband President Joachim Rukwied, continue to advocate for fair treatment and better financial conditions. The government has retracted some tax changes but maintains cuts to agrarian diesel subsidies. The protests had notable European repercussions, influencing EU agricultural policy as well. Farmers seek more substantial governmental action to address their core demands, even as recent negotiations show mixed results.
