📢 *Is Europe on the path to a meat-reduction revolution?* 🌍 A new report in The Guardian reveals that European farming lobbies are starting to recognize the need to reduce meat consumption as part of efforts to combat climate change. This marks a significant shift in the dialogue around food production and sustainability. 🌱 The report highlights that some farming groups, traditionally staunch advocates for the meat industry, are beginning to align with scientists and environmentalists in acknowledging the environmental impact of livestock farming. 🌾 Agriculture accounts for 10% of the EU’s greenhouse gas emissions, and meat production plays a significant role in that figure. The growing pressure for sustainable practices is pushing the conversation toward adopting plant-based diets and regenerative farming methods. 🐄 Interestingly, the report suggests that many farming bodies now support reducing the overall consumption of animal products. However, the shift remains slow, with powerful industry groups continuing to lobby against stricter regulations. What do you think of this changing landscape in Europe’s agriculture industry? Are we on the brink of meaningful change, or is there still a long road ahead? Link to the article is in the comments. #animalagriculture #climatechange #europe

Young people have the potential to solve several issues faced by farmers such as timely access to reliable markets and farm inputs. Although it may be an uphill task to change the mindsets of about agriculture we continue to empower young people to get it right on the missing mark to end hunger, achieve food security and improved nutrition and promote sustainable agriculture. From our conversations with young people digitalization can improve their contribution in agriculture because it unlocks opportunities at different nodes beyond production such as agriculture services, market and supply, value addition and input supply. #PartnersAgainstHunger #YouthInAgriculture
