The confederation, which represents a significant part of French farmers, demands a fairer distribution of European aid, an enhancement of their work, as well as the preservation and development of agriculture on a human scale and respectful of the environment.\n\nThey believe that the current government and the European Union are not doing enough to support small and medium-sized farms, which are the basis of quality food and sustainable agriculture. They say the current model favors large industrial farms over small family farms.\n\n
A double challenge for the French government
\n\nThe visit of Marc Fesneau has Brussels therefore coincides with increasing pressure from Peasant Confederation.

It will be interesting to observe how Marc Fesneau will be able to navigate these tumultuous political waters and what will be the government's reaction to the intensification of the action of the Peasant Confederation. \n\n
