Netherlands: In King's Speech Circular Agriculture is Cited as the Future for Dutch Farming

On each third Tuesday of September, the Dutch King’s speech is held prior to the opening of the parliamentary year. In his speech, King Willem-Alexander mentioned circular agriculture as option to tackle the Dutch nitrogen problem. According the Netherlands Agricultural and Horticultural Association, there is a lot of anger and despair among Dutch farmers. The Dutch Government is holding firm on their goal of halving the national nitrogen emissions by 2030. But despite an allocated budget of €24.3 billion to tackle the problem, until now they have been unable to provide certainty to the Dutch agricultural sector.
