Local
Farmers
To support the work of agricultural authorities, local businesswomen and farmers serve as points of contact in their communities. They provide guidance on agricultural, environmental, and nature conservation issues and, drawing on their expertise and experience, act as intermediaries between the agricultural sector, government agencies, and the public.
Among other things, they provide advice on agricultural and market issues and are involved in landscape conservation and real estate transactions.
For the 2022–2027 term, there are currently 129 local farmers and 101 alternates serving in these roles.
