Warum die Schließung des Hollywood Farmers Market die Verkäufer 175.000 US-Dollar kostete

An diesem Morgen feuerte ein Mann eine Waffe ab und das Werfen von Gegenständen vom Balkon eines Wohnhauses in Hollywood führte dazu, dass einer der größten und am längsten laufenden Bauernmärkte in LA für den Tag geschlossen wurde, was zu
Minen, Brände, Raketen: Die Verwüstungen des Krieges Bedevil Ukraine’s Farmers
SELENODILSK, Ukraine – Ihre Uniformen sind staubige Jeans und Tanktops, und sie fahren Traktoren, keine Panzer, entlang der Front im russischen Krieg in der Ukraine.
Aber ukrainische Bauern sehen sich vielen der gleichen ernsten Gefahren gegenüber wie Soldaten, wenn sie die diesjährige Ernte einfahren. In der ganzen Ukraine haben russische Artillerie und Minen Traktorfahrer getötet. Tausende Hektar reifer Weizen sind durch Streiks verbrannt. Felder sind pockennarbig, wo einfallende Granaten Krater hinterlassen haben.

Do you hear the farmers sing? – EURACTIV.com
Do you hear the farmers sing? Because there have been a lot of angry men (and women) taking to the streets recently.
Except, this time it’s not French peasants barricading the streets, as in Victor Hugo’s Les Miserables, but Dutch De Ellendigen – closely followed by German Die Elenden.
So, what is going on?
It all started when Dutch farmers started protesting over the news that the government plans to restrict livestock numbers and fertiliser use in a bid to

How Romania flouts EU ban on bee-killing insecticides – POLITICO
Press play to listen to this article
Nearly a decade after the European Union first restricted the use of seeds coated with bee-killing insecticides, Romania’s honeybees are still feeling the sting.
In one of the EU’s honey-production capitals, the government has been relying on the banned seeds to prop up its lucrative cash crop exports, something NGOs and beekeepers denounce as an egregious and routine violation of EU laws that is endangering one of the country’s most ancient trades and
A wonk’s guide to the Czech EU presidency policy agenda – POLITICO
This article is part of POLITICO’s Guide to the Czech EU Presidency special report.
The Czech presidency needs to carry the EU through an energy crisis, galloping inflation and a war in Ukraine — all on a shoestring budget.
Call it the crisis presidency.
In the midst of a war and a gathering economic crisis, the small Central European country will be tasked with making sure the EU secures a lasting supply of energy while not letting go of its
The von der Leyen Commission’s half-time scorecard – POLITICO
If Ursula von der Leyen’s five-year term can be likened to a soccer match, her team is heading for the half-time break with the scores even and a few bruised shins (mostly from self-inflicted errors).
It’s been a wild ride.
When they took the field in December 2019, von der Leyen’s squad of commissioners envisioned a diplomatic offensive in which Brussels would sneak a few goals past its chief geopolitical counterparts, China and the United States. Tactically, the formation was
How the Supply Chain Crunch is Hurting California Farmers.
During a normal spring, the sight of orchards bursting with clusters of almonds is a boon throughout California’s Central Valley. Here is money growing on trees.
Not this year.
As Scott Phippen looks out on his orchard on a recent afternoon, he feels a sense of foreboding tinged with rage. His warehouse is stuffed with the leftovers of last year’s harvest — 30 million pounds of almonds stored in wooden and plastic bins stacked to the rafters, and overflowing into
