Please stop this suggestive scaremongering!

You can't look 2 weeks ahead, let alone chat about what a summer

We were also going to have a horribly cold winter.

All those extreme predictions fit exactly into the picture that should be sketched that the climate is upset, in my opinion everything that happens is still in the bandwidth that you can expect in a normal model. But when the weatherman Verschuren from Aarle-Rixtel reported this, he had to get off the radio urgently, according to some, the truth should not be told in the Netherlands, but we are deliberately scared of the future

good clog 23 May 2020

we are scared of everything and anything: 3 examples

extreme right: oh wow, oh so dangerous!!!
1/ see what happened in russia, ddr and now in europe: right... the extreme left is much more dangerous and the sossen, are the light version of it. the whole climate thing, phew finally weakened by the corona is one hoax from the greens / sossen

2/ corona: we now only had the bintjes with 40 t/ha and the tomatoes with 15 kg/m2, . Why?? There were many more vitamins in the former vegetables than in the current inflated water bags. several professors, who have been silenced, confirm the rule

3/diesel/petrol: which is best? I think the horse ... you have a foal of that every year, shit to fertilize and that animal still understands, when it gets dark that you have to stop working.

The robbery is the champion of fear-mongering and so the lambs remain ready to be slaughtered by the bad wolf: the bankers!

In and through the Netherlands we receive much more water than goes out. A lot of water goes into the sea via the rivers. We have to do something about that. Construction of a large pipeline from the Rhine to the eastern part of the Netherlands. by governments and farmers. A farmer is already out of the fire with 200m3 / ha. The arable farmer can build a reservoir himself, a good investment with long-term effects. Get started and don't grumble so much.

shoemakers 1 23 May 2020

Gijs though, every hectare of agricultural land adds more water to the soil when it absorbs it, the water that is left, especially on dry sandy soils, first sinks to the groundwater and when the groundwater reaches the point of the ditch bottom it is very urgent that this will be removed, agriculture can in no way be held responsible and can therefore never be asked of agriculture to build a reservoir for this, you are so far removed from practice, I would say don't grumble like that Gijsje

just heard from a reliable source that the summer of 2033 will be extremely wet, please keep that in mind.

onion 23 May 2020

fresh water is the new gold, which is why we are opening the Haringvliet sluices a little so that it can also become salty to a large extent.
you must have studied for a long time to devise and implement such a thing, they used to call it capital destruction

Well, just a patch

Also a farmer 23 May 2020

Plant onion, what you write is correct. And now that almost everyone is shouting loudly that the Volkerak should not become salty, because there is a threat of a major shortage of freshwater, the government is sticking to its already adopted position. But better turned completely than half erred.

Skirt 24 May 2020

Government is mainly anti-agriculture, get that now!

hans 24 May 2020

Kjol, the government is not anti-agriculture, but mostly pro-agricultural periphery.
Farmers are pushed (subsidies!) or forced to make all kinds of unnecessary investments. This allows supply companies to test their inventions in practice.

On the other hand, the government naturally drives up land prices by buying farmland at unprecedented prices, and fiscally "obliging" those selling farmers to quickly reinvest in land. Is this anti-agriculture? I think that because of this (average land price increases) many are still farmers who would otherwise be bankrupt.

Heat wave coming, and it still has to be summer

shoemakers 1 25 May 2020

Dear Hans, I have a very good and beautiful plot, which the government wants to make worthless with their furnishing, I have been working for 7 years, many lawyer costs further, and the only option that is offered to me is that I have at least 100.000 on the plot. should get worse, why not farmer-unfriendly?

hans 25 May 2020

Schoemakers, give name and numbers and then we'll talk.
That nonsense by now that every ha. is worth 100.000 euros.

shoemakers 1 25 May 2020

Why bullshit about a ha, it's about a plot of 13 ha, I want everything to get a solution, but every opportunity they want to go along with it makes me at least 100.000 worse!

Gijs 25 May 2020

@Schoenmaker 1, although you may be right when it comes to 12 months from now, but you are completely wrong when it comes to the months in the 2nd quarter. As an entrepreneur you have to look from day to day and make a risk/impact analysis. A farmer should not expect that another person (government, water board) will always be ready with sufficient water. So just build a water reservoir. You also put diesel in your tractor.

hans 25 May 2020

Shoemakers, did you ever bid 100.000 higher for those 13 hectares? Or is that the value in YOUR eyes?
IF you ever got that offer, you may have forgotten something. After all, the circumstances for buyers have also changed quite a bit in recent years, from "opportunities" to "and now?".

In addition, also a price of 7000 ha. lower, this will still yield a nice price compared to foreign land prices.
And that higher land price is not a result of the higher production capacity of that land (if there is one!).

shoemakers 1 25 May 2020

In principle I don't want to sell, I'm lying well, so I compare with what I have to spend in order to be able to lie down elsewhere with a comparable plot. This plot is about 15 kilometers from my house, so if it is not much further I find it acceptable, but according to the authority, a comparable plot cannot be found. I even made an exchange proposal that would be possible, this with property of them, but they did not accept that either. One thing becomes clear in this, the government is allowed to do everything and does not have to do anything, in what a rotten country we live. And you compare that land is cheaper abroad, I can't let an African work for 50 cents an hour, so that comparison doesn't hold.

It is remarkable that you apparently find the climate nonsense more dangerous than the enormous crimes of extreme right-wing regimes in the past, in a topic about the weather.

hans 26 May 2020

mr. Shoemakers, allee, I'll add some water to the wine too.

I also know that the Netherlands is currently governed on (almost?) all levels by egos, nitwits and mates. I have also experienced several times that you can suffer from that.

But it is certain that they have made sure that land has become much too expensive in the Netherlands.
There remains one big solution for farmers to get rid of them, and to be able to do that easily because of their fumbling, whereby they will quickly get the lid on their nose.

Many have already preceded you!

I don't completely agree with you, do you pay a fairly large amount every year to the water board and yes, what if they don't do water management?
