Who will show up for the farmers?

Farmers and the agricultural sector were one of the key issues in the political debate before the European elections. With the vote now behind us, we’re looking into what the new parliamentary composition means for the sector in this mandate. Who will sit on the Agri committee and will the electoral promises to farmers be kept? 

To shed some light on what will happen with the agri sector, I’m joined by our agrifood reporter Sofia Sanchez Manzanaro.
