Our guests in this second part:

- Dr. Rachel Reckinger, sociologist and anthropologist of food . It calls for a common European agricultural and food policy, not only geared towards production, but also towards the needs of Europeans, by reducing food supply and distribution chains across Luxembourg and its neighbors.

- Tilly Metz , Luxembourg green MEP. It supports the creation of a basic income for farmers across Europe in order to have farming that is no longer geared towards intensive export production, but quality farming that is environmentally-friendly for European nationals.

Our reports:

- "In France, from agri-bashing… to agri-loving?" , by Mathilde Bénézet and Céline Schmitt. During the health crisis, many volunteers went to help farmers with seasonal work. Meet these new recruits who will perhaps give birth to new vocations in a rural world too often isolated and confronted with many difficulties.

- "The German potato is big on the potato", by Anne Maillet. Even if their production remains on their hands, German farmers doubt the economic viability of a great organic leap forward. If the decision-makers have green ambitions, the productivists are well established and intend to play the watch.

A program presented by Caroline de Camaret, produced by Johan Bodin, with images by Stéphane Bodenne, and the participation of Luke Brown, Céline Schmitt, Catherine Nicholson, Perrine Desplats and Mathilde Bénézet.
