Crackdown on EU’s intensive animal farming
Pig farmers are standing by for details of expected EU measures to restrict their activities, after Janusz Wojciechowski, the EU’s agriculture commissioner, said, “As part of the Green Deal, it will be necessary to address the problem of intensive pig farming in some EU countries, because agriculture has to be sustainable.”
Wojciechowski, from Poland, who succeeded Ireland’s Phil Hogan as agriculture commissioner, wants to crack down on the environmental impact of intensive animal farming.
