Quick Glance: EU Abandons Pesticide Plan
  • To appease farmers, the EU Commission shelved a proposal related to pesticides on Tuesday, following weeks of protests that blocked major cities and economic arteries across the 27-nation Union.

  • Farmers argue that measures such as those regarding pesticides would increase bureaucratic burdens and prevent them from farming, widening the price gap between their products and inexpensive imports.

  • The proposals were made without consulting the farmers.

  • The plight of farmers has taken center stage in the upcoming EU parliamentary elections, sidelining climate issues in recent weeks.
