Minister of Agriculture Marc Fesneau indicated on Wednesday that the new emergency fund intended to help organic farmers in difficulty would increase from 50 to 90 million euros. This plan, which must still be approved by the European Commission, is in addition to the 104 million euros in aid paid in 2023 to operators in this sector.
The sector has been suffering for two years from sluggish consumption, in a context of strong inflation. More information to come at the Salon de l'agriculture.
