In international comparison, Austrian agriculture allows a high degree of security of supply, but there are still a number of open construction sites, the director of the Lower Austrian Farmers’ Association is concerned: “Drought and climate change offer great potential for danger. Many of the past few years have been the warmest in the history of measurements, which means that there has been a significant drop in harvest volumes and this is a huge burden for local farmers,” explains Paul Nemecek in the conversation on krone.tv with Gerhard Koller.
He also strongly condemned the recent sale of the former Austrian fertilizer manufacturer Borealis to Czech investors: “Austria is no longer able to produce enough fertilizer for its own needs, but is becoming even more dependent on the Russian, Ukrainian and now also Czech fertilizer manufacturer. Nemecek says. This is “a worrying signal for domestic agriculture”.
