The buyout programme will initially impact approximately 3,000 privately-owned farms which are deemed to emit too much nitrogen.<\/p>\n<p>Starting next month, farmers will be able to apply for a buyout, which will be set at 120 per cent of the farm\u2019s value. In addition to the top nitrogen emitters, the government will also offer buyouts for\u00a0dairy, pig and poultry farmers to shut down in exchange for a payout of 100 per cent of their farm\u2019s value. It is expected that some 8,000 farmers will be eligible for the second scheme, Dutch public broadcaster NOS\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/nos.nl\/artikel\/2478603-meer-duidelijkheid-voor-piekbelasters-regelingen-voor-boeren-bekendgemaakt\">reports<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>In total, the government has allocated 1.4 billion euros to cover the two programmes. The buyout scheme, which will last until next April, will remain voluntary for now; however, the Dutch government has previously <a href=\"https:\/\/www.breitbart.com\/europe\/2023\/03\/23\/eu-told-dutch-govt-to-double-down-on-forced-farm-closures-to-gain-more-flexibility-on-green-regulations\/\">suggested<\/a>\u00a0that if uptake is not high enough it may be forced to impose mandatory buyouts.<\/p>\n<p>The\u00a0farmers\u2019 group Agractie expressed concern over the launch, saying that while a website has been opened to allow farmers to see if they are eligible for a buyout, the other options, such as reducing emissions, are not currently explained, meaning that farmers cannot accurately judge which direction to take.<\/p>\n<p>The move to shut down potentially thousands of farms in The Netherlands, despite the ongoing food crisis, could have a significant impact further afield given the country\u2019s status as Europe\u2019s\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.cbs.nl\/nl-nl\/nieuws\/2021\/25\/nederland-grootste-vleesexporteur-van-de-eu\">largest exporter of meat<\/a>\u00a0and one of the largest dairy exporters in the world.<\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" data-width=\"550\" data-dnt=\"true\">\n<p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\">\u201cOur government doesn\u2019t cater to the wishes of its own citizens, it caters to globalist institutions whose interest it is to control the food supply, so they can control us.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIt\u2019s the great reset in full force,\u201d said <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/EvaVlaar?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">@EvaVlaar<\/a><a href=\"https:\/\/t.co\/4qJNJ1oDKp\">https:\/\/t.co\/4qJNJ1oDKp<\/a><\/p>\n<p>&mdash; Breitbart London (@BreitbartLondon) <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/BreitbartLondon\/status\/1597923397836496897?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">November 30, 2022<\/a><\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p><script async src=\"https:\/\/platform.twitter.com\/widgets.js\" charset=\"utf-8\"><\/script><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>There has been widespread rejection of the government\u2019s green agenda; however, with farmers launching large-scale <a href=\"https:\/\/www.breitbart.com\/europe\/2022\/07\/28\/dutch-farmer-road-blockades-fires-continue-over-night\/\">tractor protests<\/a>\u00a0across the country over the past two years, which have shut down highways and critical infrastructure.<\/p>\n<p>The resentment against the globalist government also saw the populist Farmer-Citizen Movement (BBB)<a href=\"https:\/\/www.breitbart.com\/europe\/2023\/03\/20\/pro-farmer-party-wins-even-more-dutch-senators-than-expected-globalist-govt-loses-big\/\">\u00a0sweep to victory<\/a>\u00a0in the Senate and local elections earlier this year, becoming the largest party in the country after previously holding zero seats.
