Yes, but keep in mind that we’re talking about the meat industry. Not farmers who are growing tomatoes, so the pollution is real. The millions of cows and pigs located in a relatively small area does effect the nature locally.
But we’re entering a situation where the government under pressure of the EU might force them to sell their land, and in that case I’m completely against because it destroys a countries integrity, especially if we end up with the farmers party as the biggest with the next elections (they already won the first chamber).
