Zu Wooltz 🇱🇺 fir den Europa Dag. Eng perséinlech Freed am Norde vum Land ze si wou ech gebuer sinn, awer och eng Erënnerung: Europa ass net nëmmen Haaptstied. Europa gëtt och hei gelieft. An eisem ländleche Raum, op eise Felder an an de Wäerter déi eis verbannen 🇪🇺

In Wiltz 🇱🇺 for Europe Day. A personal return to where I was born, but also a reminder: Europe is not only capitals. It is here too. In our rural areas, our fields & the values that unite us 🇪🇺 Built on peace, democracy, freedom & solidarity, let's continue to celebrate Europe

In my discussions with 🇪🇺 Ministers at the informal #AGRIFISH in Cyprus, one message stands out: farmers can’t face growing risks alone From climate to market shocks, our job is clear: help farmers manage risks & invest in resilience. CAP must help them prepare, not just recover

Thank you! On #InternationalWorkersDay we thank all those working in the agri-food sector🌾 From planting to packaging, your work feeds the EU every day. The #CAP supports fair and safe working conditions, putting people at the heart of agriculture.

What I want to avoid at all costs is that farmers stop producing in the next harvesting cycle. 🌱On 19 May, I will present a Fertiliser Action Plan. ➡️ We need greater strategic autonomy. We need greater resilience and a stronger European fertiliser base.

Farmers are being squeezed by rising energy and fertiliser costs. This situation is very serious. I am fully aware of it and very concerned. This matter has all my attention.

At #AGRIFISH in 🇱🇺 we discussed the future CAP and our proposals to make income support more targeted & fair — but also the reality farmers face now. Farmers are under real pressure. We’re preparing relief now and building long-term resilience, starting 19 May.

A pleasure to meet again @terrashendrikj @ArmandsKrauze and Andrius Palionis at our monthly meeting of Agriculture Ministers We discussed the state of our agricultural markets and the EU support being prepared. Stronger together! 🇪🇺🇪🇪🇱🇻🇱🇹

Energy shocks have exposed our farmers to rising input costs and uncertainty. We must accelerate the shift to homegrown solutions, scaling biogas, biomethane & biofuels. To strenghten our energy independence and support farm incomes.

A great exchange with the first 🇪🇺-🇺🇸 Young Leaders in Agriculture cohort Farmers on both sides of the Atlantic face shared challenges—and huge opportunities. Connecting & innovating together, this generation has much to learn from each other to build a future-ready agriculture
