The outgoing Minister of Agriculture CEM Ozdemir spoke out for meat last summer for an easy increase in VAT. Additional income should take farmers who convert their stables for more animals. Environmentalists also promise higher meat prices that the consumption of this climate is significant.
Reiner holds loudly Painting Instead, even a decrease in meat prices is possible: “I am a great friend of a social market economy. This means: prices for meat are not done not by the minister, but by the market, ”said the trained butcher and the current member of the Bundestag.
Rainer said that Nizhny Bavarian, obviously, also wants to act in the menu of kindergartens and schools: Rainer should also be served there. “A balanced diet is important,” the future minister said. In some daytime centers and schools, meat is no longer offered, because consumption on average is so high that, according to experts, it causes damage to health and climate. Supporters of vegetarian food plans also claim that food in kindergarten or school is only a small part of the diet, of course, meat can also be eaten at home.

Reiner wants farmers Painting According to more freedom: “Farmers are not children who need to patronize,” the future minister said. In agricultural policy, he rather relied on incentives instead of prohibitions.
The Bund for the environment and nature of Germany (Bund) and the German Association of Protection of Animals predominantly criticized Reiner’s statements. “I can only advise Mr. Rainer before making clear statements in order to find out what has already been united,” said the Taars of the Tazer. The future commission on agriculture, in which both the German farm associations and activists for the protection of ecology and the law to animals participated unanimously decided that the consumption and production of animal products should have been reduced. “Alois Rainer should not ignore this. The fact that his party leader Marcus Seder eats a lot of barbecue should not become a general nutrition, ”said Schroeder.
The chairman of the Bund Olaf Bandt indicated to Rainer that agriculture, according to the coalition agreement, should be designed in the spirit of the consensus society as a whole. “And this is not the social consent that we have,” said Bandt. The future commission even suggested slightly increasing VAT on meat in order to finance the transformation of livestock. “Mr. Rainer is now saying something else. That’s why we would like to talk to him. ”

Animals also suffer. For example, cereals also feed more people if they are eaten directly and do not feed. Also too much meat associated with cancer and blood circulation.
