We invite you to evaluate the first year of Greening

As the first year comes to an end, when almost every one of you had to implement greening requirements on your farm, officials in Brussels want to know how farmers in different countries have fared. It has been developed online a public consultation questionnaire, in which each of you is invited to provide your answers so that Brussels decision-makers can better understand which of the requirements can be easily met and which require improvements. Farmers across Europe are not satisfied with the current requirements, and unfortunately neither are environmentalists, who are demanding that politicians further tighten the requirements for farmers. We must respond actively and intelligently to this questionnaire to promote simplification and logic in the requirements!

The ZSA has sent the questionnaires to be filled out to each member's email. We really hope you will find about 15 minutes to fill out the questionnaire!

The questionnaire is also available on the EC website (http://ec.europa.eu/agriculture/consultations/greening/2015_lv.htm), under the “View survey page” section.

If you have any questions, please contact the ZSA office. Tel. no.: 67027044.
