Author: Annick Goerens - adapted for RTL Today|Update: 08.02.2021 15:16 On Monday morning, the president of the Chamber of Agriculture paid a visit to our colleagues at RTL Radio.
Luxembourgish farmers have not been spared by the health crisis, yet it took the government a considerable amount of time to introduce financial support for the sector, president Feyder explained. Still, it is more of a symbolic recognition than a real compensation, he further noted. The agricultural sector suffers for as long as the Horesca sector remains closed. He also directed criticism at Minister of Agriculture, Viticulture and Rural Development Romain Schneider, who Feyder believes has not fought enough for their interests. He fears that the minister s voice is ignored by the administration, which in general has no vision for the sector.
