Every Farm Counts

Why we need to keep as many farms on the land as we can

A quarter of all farms disappeared in the EU between 2005 and 2016. And corporate power still pushes farmers to go big or go out of business. But there are alternatives!

Many small to medium-sized farms provide better income and more jobs and are more resilient than big farms. The key to their success is the adoption of agroecological and organic practices. It is a win-win situation for farmers and citizens, the environment and prospering rural areas.

Read our brochure to learn more about how the EU’s agricultural policy can support farmers in their transition to organic and agroecological methods
