The significance and characteristics of the development of agriculture in France.
Agricultural products account for 22% of France's agricultural production. French agricultural products occupy an important place in the marketing of Europe. France has fertile soil and weather suitable for growing crops. The agriculture produced in France, such as wheat, corn, vegetables, fruits, is the largest in Europe, and the wine is also the largest in the world. France, in particular, is the world's fifth-largest exporter of wheat, with 80% of its cereals sold abroad, in addition to a large share of malt extract and starch. In addition, France has 2.55 million acres of land, which is the largest in Europe. French farmers are very fond of their labor, and they follow ancient farming methods and carry out high-density farming, which greatly promotes the development of French agriculture.
Demonstration by French farmers.
Although France's agricultural industry is growing rapidly, French farmers are dissatisfied with the current agricultural policy. With the negotiations between the European Union and South American countries, a large number of low-priced agricultural products entered Europe, which had a huge impact on French agriculture. According to the results of the French poll, 39% of the French people say that the European Union is the main culprit of the agricultural crisis, 32% of the people say that the low price of food in supermarkets is the cause of the problem, and 29% of the people say that this is the biggest cause of the problem. The above figures show that the French people generally approve of and support their demonstrations.
The influence of French farmers.
Although the farmers of France have only 22% share, but it plays an important role in the production of agricultural products in France and Europe. France is home to half of Europe's grain production, making it the world's second-largest exporter of agricultural products after the United States. In addition, farmers in France are also marching, and farmers in Germany, Poland, Romania, Belgium, Italy and other European countries have also started their **. Spain's three largest agricultural unions have also gone on nationwide strikes in the coming weeks.
The balance of interests between agriculture and government in France.
France reacted to this and reacted accordingly. France's Macron has supported French agriculture several times at European summits and said he would protect his country's farmers accordingly. However, state aid alone will not be enough, France must strengthen exchanges and collaboration with European countries to find a viable way to help farmers out of their current predicament.
Look forward. Although the demonstrations in France have been quelled, farmers in France and Europe are still unhappy about their policies towards their agricultural products. In particular, with the European Parliament approaching, far-right parties from all over the world hope to be able to capitalize on the discontent from farmers and make a breakthrough in **. This requires farmers to take more proactive measures to ensure the sustainable and healthy development of agriculture.
The conclusion is:
The demonstrations in France reflected some of the problems with France's agricultural policy on the continent, as well as the dilemma they faced. France is the largest producer and exporter of agricultural products in Europe, and its agricultural production occupies an important position in Europe. However, with the consultations between the European Union and the countries of South America, French agricultural products are cheap and agricultural products are constantly increasing. In addition, low prices at supermarkets, complex policies, inflation and rising fuel** have all added to the anger of farmers. To this end, France should intensify exchanges and cooperation with European countries and strengthen the protection of the rights and interests of domestic farmers. On this basis, peasant households must take the initiative to participate in and safeguard their rights in order to ensure the steady development of the rural economy. In the future, the dissatisfaction of the peasant households will be exploited by the extreme right parties, so it is necessary to work closely with the peasant households to face this difficult problem together in order to better promote the development of agriculture.
