Dutch farmers
This paragraph:
We investigate the environmental NGOs close to the government who are lobbying for this policy and will conveniently end up as the custodians of the Dutch countryside once the farmers are removed from the land.

Nitrogen 2000 is a 30 minute documentary on the Dutch Farmer struggle of 2022/23.
Why has the Dutch government created a 25 billion euro Agricultural Transition Fund to buy out up to 50% of their cattle farmers by the summer of 2023?
What is really going on here? In Nitrogen 2000 we get to the bottom of the story.
Help fund this short film that explains a story no other media outlet is getting to the bottom of.
In this exclusive 30 minute film, we tour Holland to speak with all the top players in the story:
Erik Luiten, board member and spokesperson for Agrectie, a moderate farmers group
Jos Ubels, Vice President of Farmers Defense Force, a staunch farmers group
Tjeerd de Groot, MP and architect of the policy restricting the farmers
Wybren Van Haga, MP and opponent of the policy restricting farmers
Professor Han Lindeboom, leading government scientist critical of the models justifying the policy
Sietska Bergsman, Political commentator
Jos Bolk, Farmer with land in and near Nature 2000 areas
We explore the involvement of the main farmer bank in the scandal, Rabo Bank, who has taken the side of the government, and has already begun sending loan recall letters to farmers. We investigate the environmental NGOs close to the government who are lobbying for this policy and will conveniently end up as the custodians of the Dutch countryside once the farmers are removed from the land. We inquire into why the government is pushing a policy that will drive up food prices at a time when food shortages world wide are effecting us all.
What does this mean for the future of our food supply? After decades of advocating “Food Security,” why is the Dutch government now advocating a policy that purposely makes Holland completely dependent on foreign food production?
