Because I wrote an entire essay for some guy on discord and I figured might as well put it somewhere someone might actually read it (some things are lacking context but just keep reading the arguments I'm refuting are mostly kneejerk reactions that will be evident from my response):

Capitalism does not address scarcity. It vastly, VASTLY overproduces cheap consumer goods (christmas gift type goods are made in the billions months or even years before the year they're to be sold in, completely divorced from market predictions) while completely neglecting or making unattainably expensive essential goods like high density housing, public transit vehicles, life saving medication, quality food, etc.

Capitalist profit-seeking drives unnsustainable food practices like intensive animal agriculture, monocropping, industrial fertilizer and chemical weeding. Causes cities to implode by building endless suburbs whose tax income does not cover the costs of road and utility maintenance as well as moving industry to areas with cheaper labor and destroying ecosystems with illegal or unregulated dumping and pollution. Insulin is VERY cheap to make and the patent was sold for $1 decades ago. It has gotten more expensive even relative to other expensive medications, soaring dozens of times faster than inflation would imply. After WW2, car companies that made absurd amounts of money off of building tanks and planes then bought up public transit across the US and literally stacked it in a pile and burned it. There's photos of hundreds of burnt out streetcars with Henry Ford (who inspired parts of Mein Kampf and profited off of Jewish slave labor before the war btw) smoking a cigar and looking rather pleased with himself in the foreground. These are just off the top of my head

[9:41 PM]Now for how non-capitalist economies differ:

When removed from the stress of having to earn a living and the desire to accumulate enough to give their children a better life, most people are often very willing to help each other out for free. Under the stress of capitalist workdays (which are literally designed to make you too tired to think, shorter workweeks and workdays have been proven to significantly improve productivity in all sectors), people don't have the energy to spare to help their neighbor. However, pretty much everyone expresses some desire to make the world a better place if they were able. What would you personally do if you didn't have to worry about rent or your next meal or clothes or transportation ever again? Maybe play video games and [redacted] for a week straight but after that? Pretty much everyone is gonna say "hang out with loved ones and cook food."

All necessary forms of labor/work are enjoyable or at least bearable in the name of the greater good to some people. There are people who fucking LOVE picking up trash, like being a sanitation worker is literally the only job they ever want to have. A pretty sizeable chunk of the population enjoys growing plants and taking care of animals and there are methods of farming that require remarkably little effort. Pretty much everyone has a hobby they either currently enjoy or would love to pick up that is required for people to have comfortable lives, but cannot dedicate themselves to it because it would not be profitable enough to live off of

[9:56 PM]decommodifying goods and services fixes this, everyone can do at least one of the things they like doing because there is no threat of violence if you don't work (violence meaning eviction, starvation, freezing to death, etc) In addition to refocusing labor on what actually makes people enjoy their labor, it makes it pretty easy to keep up with demand. "Oh we need more food? Ok well go give people some seeds from the seed library and tools from the tool library. Now we have more food." "We need more clothing? Ok tell the sheperds to let more of their flock have kids and the textile mills to work an extra thirty minutes a day for the next month" (side note, there's finally been developments in automating clothesmaking. Tailoring will be more important after capitalism to ensure clothes are better fitting and last longer but the general forms won't need slave waged third world workers anymore soon)

[9:59 PM]Without states or capitalists to bicker over resources, there's no reason for wars. There will still be some interpersonal violence but without needing drug money to make life bearable (or like, baby formula bc apparently it's violent crime for someone to shoplift baby formula) how often do you think there will be THAT much violent crime? (although various other forms of hierarchy will need to be torn down in order to stop hate crimes like lynchings, mass shootings, and rape)

honestly really the only refutation needed for this as you have worded it is paleontology. Some of our most ancient ancestors have signs of living decades after debilitating injuries that would have rendered them utterly useless to family and unable to care for themselves. This necessitates that they were cared for at great inconvenience for upwards of fifty years tens of thousands of years before the earliest hints of civilization, let alone the currency to pay for a hospice nurse

[10:07 PM]Also, even in the context of mineral mining, without the need for phone companies to sell phones every year, electronics will become much longer lasting and more selectively repairable, meaning less minerals will be removed from use and fewer minerals will be needed to support all the products that are never actually bought in the first place. Even more so with cars, public transit vehicles carry orders of magnitude more people for relatively similar requirements and they don't even NEED conflict minerals in some cases because of overhead electricity being a solution to the tyranny of the battery equation (has someone coined that phrase yet? it seems like a very obvious parallel to the rocket equation now that I think about it but anyways) ok I think I've completely poured my remaining braincells for the day into this I'm gonna take a nap now

What are the Priority Areas of Indian Agriculture that needs Support?

Priority Areas of Indian Agriculture that needs Support:

1. Improving agricultural output, business viability, and rural development:

Growing the use of cutting-edge tools and improving agricultural study and outreach: One of the most crucial requirements for agricultural development in India is a comprehensive overhaul and strengthening of the country's extension infrastructure as well as agricultural research. Because of the tremendous amount of underfunding of operations as well as infrastructure, little replacement of retiring researchers, and limited access to cutting-edge technologies, these services have steadily deteriorated over time. There is very little new that can be found through research that isn't already available in tired old packages. The public sector's extension services are in a bind, and they don't have much new to teach farmers. Neither research nor extension, nor the private sector, are adequately connected.

Agriculture in India is the largest user of water, hence proper management of irrigation and drainage systems is essential. The necessity for multi-sectoral planning, river basin, as well as management of water has been brought into focus by the rising rivalry for water among industrial, home, and agricultural uses. Because of rising demands in the industry, households, and agriculture, the amount of water available for irrigation is expected to decrease. We need to figure out how to get far more out of irrigation. Drip irrigation and piped water supply are two examples of more effective delivery methods that could be implemented.

The usage of groundwater must also be managed, rather than exploited. Efforts to discourage water use by, say, increasing the cost of power or having the community keep tabs on consumption, have not yet achieved widespread success. It is also important to improve cost recovery; (ii) rationalise all the public expenditures by prioritising the completion of schemes that gives the highest possible returns; (iii) allocate sufficient resources for operations and maintenance; and (iv) allocate sufficient resources for operations and maintenance to ensure the sustainability of investments in irrigation and drainage systems. Book My Crop is a unique platform that brings farmers and buyers together for buying and selling agriculture products online in India.

To encourage farmers to expand their product ranges to include higher-value items, we can use: Particularly in the areas that are dependent on rain and with extreme poverty, encouraging farmers to shift to better-value commodities will be a crucial driver for increased agricultural growth. And there's a lot of room for agro-processing to grow and for competitive value chains to be established from farms to cities to overseas markets. Farmers and business owners should take the lead on diversification efforts, but the government may help by easing regulations on things like distribution and processing. It can also serve a limited regulatory role, however, care must be taken to prevent this from becoming a barrier.

Agricultural sub-sectors with considerable growth potential include the dairy industry, which needs to be supported. Over a quarter of India's agricultural GDP comes from the livestock industry, mostly because of dairy, and it provides a living for 70% of rural families, most of which are low-income and headed by women. Milk output has increased rapidly, by around 4% annually, while domestic consumption is forecast to increase by a minimum of 5% annually in the years to come. However, milk output is limited by a variety of variables, including genetically low-quality cows, a lack of feed, and a lack of veterinary care. Reduced poverty and increased output would likely result from a programme specifically designed to address these bottlenecks.

India's history of heavy government engagement in agri-marketing has led to trade barriers both domestically and internationally, making the distribution and sale of agricultural products difficult and expensive. Investment from the private sector in areas such as advertising, supply networks, and food processing is on the rise, albeit at a far slower rate than it could be. Although certain limitations are being removed, much more must be done to facilitate diversification and reduce prices for consumers. Because it is still so hard for farmers to secure credit, there is also a need to make rural finance more accessible to them. Further, power, fertiliser, and irrigation subsidies have gradually grown to dominate government spending in the sector, and today are almost four times greater than investment expenditures, which has pushed aside other important priorities like agricultural research and extension. Are you a bulk buyer or wholesaler of agri-products looking to buy agriculture products online, Book My Crop is an excellent platform to buy-sell agriculture products, market them and get the needed exposure as well as grab the attention of buyers across the globe.

2. Community initiatives and the reduction of poverty:

Even though agricultural expansion will lay the groundwork for higher wages for the roughly 170 million rural BPL (below the poverty line), residents, supplementary efforts are needed to ensure that everyone benefits from this expansion. For instance, it has been determined that a rural livelihoods programme that helps people set themselves up for success is ideally suited for expansion. Increased community savings and support for local initiatives to boost incomes and jobs are two of the many positive outcomes of this programme. By joining together to form larger organisations, poor communities are able to exert more influence over their local governments and secure better economic and social conditions for their members, as well as better access to markets for their goods. Women and low-income families can benefit the most from these self-help groups. Are you a farmer looking to sell agriculture products online in India? Book My Crop is the right place for you to market your crops and attract potential buyers.

3. Preserving natural resources and ensuring the continued success of the agricultural sector:

Due to over-pumping, groundwater levels are decreasing in several regions of India, threatening agricultural production. However, in some irrigated regions, water-logging is causing soil salts to accumulate. Most of the rural population relies on rain-fed agriculture, so farmers there need to change their methods to prevent soil erosion and make the most of the water they receive. The overuse and degradation of forest land necessitate preventative action. Practically all of these issues have tried and true answers. The most thorough approach is watershed management programmes, in which communities plan their land use and implement agricultural methods that preserve soil health, boost water absorption, and boost productivity through increased yields and diversified cropping.

The question, though, is how to expand the reach of such programmes to more regions of the country. The impact of climate change is another factor to consider. Droughts, floods, and unpredictable rain patterns are all predicted to become more common, with the biggest impact felt in areas that rely on precipitation from the sky. With the help of certain initiatives by agricultural extension as well as research, the watershed programme may be the best agricultural programme for fostering the development of novel crop types and enhanced farming techniques. Nonetheless, it's possible that other initiatives, including the livelihoods programme and the growth of non-farm jobs, are equally crucial.

Farm Tires

The Farm Tires market is estimated to be valued at over US$ 4,167 million in 2019, with a projected CAGR of 5.3% from 2018 to 2028. Unit sales are expected to reach over 18,676 units in 2019. The global revenue surge in the farm tires market is fueled by the rapid mechanization in the agriculture sector and the increased sales of tractors, a trend expected to persist throughout the forecast period. These tires, known for their large amounts of natural rubber, are designed to handle heavy-duty fieldwork. Additionally, the rising demand for very high flexion tractor tires is anticipated to further drive global sales.

A significant factor boosting global farm tire sales is the potential shift from bias-ply to radial-ply tires, driven by the growing demand for tractors worldwide. The sales of these tires are directly influenced by the increasing market demand for tractors, with over 3.8 million tractors sold between 2017 and 2018. Moreover, technological advancements play a pivotal role in agriculture tire sales, with a surge in demand for very high flexion (VF) and increased flexion (IF) tires due to the growing weight of machinery.

Product development and pricing strategies have a substantial impact on overall sales, with farmers and end-users leaning towards cost-effective tire options. This heightened competition in the sector.

Global Farm Tires Market Size and Forecast: Regional Analysis

Asia Pacific Dominates: Asia Pacific dominated global sales in 2018, driven by substantial sales in China and India, which accounted for over half of the total tractor sales in 2018. The region still holds untapped market potential for farm tire manufacturers and vendors. The aftermarket segment holds a significant market share in Asia Pacific. While OEM presents a substantial revenue opportunity, the limited number of tractor and heavy machinery manufacturers has resulted in fewer farm tire vendors. The region's demand is led by tractors and harvesters, followed by trailers and suits. New entrants and small-scale players often focus on the aftermarket to maintain agility.

North America - A Key Destination: North America is a crucial market for manufacturers, registering a slowdown in net agriculture output in 2017. However, this had a negligible impact on overall farm tire sales, indicating the relatively higher spending capacity in the region. While the industry is experiencing optimistic growth, declining commodity costs could impact farmers' spending capacity, leading to sluggish demand for agriculture tires. Unlike Asia Pacific, North America is expected to witness moderate growth in sales, with market consolidation and leading players holding a major share.

WEEK 6: SOCIAL MEDIA INFLUENCERS AND THE SLOW FASHION MOVEMENT

1. Fast fashion

In recent times, along with the rapid development and the demand for a “fast-food” like style of clothes, cheap and convenient, fast fashion is becoming more and more popular. Fast fashion is a business model that focuses on the production of garments in bulk, and as quickly as possible, in response to current trends, according to Dr. Preeti Arya, an assistant professor of textile development and marketing at the Fashion Institute of Technology in New York (Nicioli 2023). The term was initially used in a New York Times article in 1989 when Zara's first shop opened in the United States. According to the Times, the clothes were expected to have a design created from an idea to the final product in only 15 days, with reasonable prices and convenience for customers.

In general, fast fashion is developed based on luxurious showcases from many celebrities and designers, in many fashion runways of New York, Paris, Milan… Reputable brands such as Zara, H&M, or Mango replicate those trends as they appear in real-time to create new, desirable styles weekly, if not daily. They can provide massive amounts of clothing and can ensure that customers never tire of inventory (Stanton 2023). The objective is to get these designs into the hands of customers while the clothing is still at its peak popularity and all-too-low costs. Buyers can have a feeling of dressing in the same style as their admired celebrities like they are on the real fashion runway at a reasonable price.

2. Impacts of “instant noodle” fashion styles on the environment

In recent years, the fashion industry has received abundant criticism over its limited consideration of social and environmental issues, placing the non-financial costs of fashion on the global public agenda (Niinimäki et al. 2020). According to an analysis by Business Insider, fashion production comprises 10% of total global carbon emissions, as much as the European Union. It dries up water sources and pollutes rivers and streams, while 85% of all textiles go to dumps each year (Maiti 2024). Even washing clothes releases 500,000 tons of microfibres into the ocean each year, the equivalent of 50 billion plastic bottles. Fiber production is also considered one of the main contributors to the industry’s global pollution impacts. The report also found that fiber production has the highest influence on freshwater withdrawal (water diverted or extracted from a surface water or groundwater source) and ecosystem quality caused by cotton agriculture. In 2030, the UN predicted that emissions from textile production itself are expected to increase by 60%.

3. "Slow fashion - slow food - slow digestion"

On the opposite end of the spectrum from the fast fashion production model, Kate Fletcher (2007) founded the slow fashion movement by drawing inspiration from the “slow food” movement, which emphasizes responsibility in food production and consumption. Companies that emphasize more sustainable practices make up the slow fashion movement, prizing craftsmanship, good stewardship, and quality products (Brewer 2019). Slow fashion is an approach to fashion that prioritizes sustainability, ethical principles, and quality over quantity. It emphasizes quality over quantity, ethical manufacture, sustainable materials, local production, and transparency.

4. Effects of slow fashion on the environment

Slow fashion promotes sustainable techniques and ethical working conditions. In opposite to quick fashion, it prioritizes quality and durability while advocating for both nature and people. Slow fashion promotes eco-friendly materials, minimizes waste, reduces carbon emissions, and supports ethical production processes. It also guarantees excellent manufacturing, extending the life of the garment or material. A rising number of farms and organizations favor the slow-fashion trend. One such example is the Better Cotton Initiative, which specifies principles and practices for sustainable production, while several more groups give resources and knowledge to modern farmers. By promoting mindful consumption and responsible production practices, slow fashion aims to create a more sustainable and ethical fashion industry that values craftsmanship, durability, and social responsibility.

Protests by farmers are in full swing across CEE ahead of next week’s EU agriculture ministers' meeting. Populists in the region are looking to exploit the issue ahead of the European elections, to varying degrees of success.

Large demonstrations, many involving tractors blockading city roads and border points, took place across Czechia, Hungary, Poland and Slovakia over the past week, as farmers protested a variety of issues, from rising production costs and higher taxes, to excessive environmental rules and bureaucracy, to cheap imports coming from Ukraine.

Yet what unites them is their anger at the EU and member state governments for not listening to their concerns, in what is fast becoming a politically charged affair ahead of crucial elections in June for the European Parliament.

In Poland, where nationwide protests kicked off on February 9, it is the dumping of Ukrainian food produce on the Polish market that is the source of much of the anger.

At Dorohusk, on Poland’s eastern border with Ukraine, hundreds of trucks waiting to leave Poland are stuck in a line longer than 10 kilometres as Polish farmers are blocking the border crossing to force the government to meet their demands.

“This is an act of despair,” Tomasz Warchalawski, a 49-year-old farmer from the Lubelskie region, told BIRN on February 14 as he helped maintain the blockade at Dorohusk. “Prices for our produce have dropped so low since the war started that we are barely making ends meet. Right now, there are times I have to borrow to stay afloat.”

By February 21, Polish farmers were stopping traffic at all border crossings with Ukraine; the rule of the blockades is that only one truck is allowed to pass per hour both ways, with the exception of humanitarian aid, military equipment and fuel. Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky said the blockade indicated “an erosion of solidarity with Ukraine” and that the protest actions in Poland were “more about politics than about grain”, as only 5 per cent of Ukrainian agricultural exports pass through Poland.

Elsewhere in Poland, farmers organised a major action in the centre of the south-western city of Wroclaw on February 15, which included using tractors to block traffic and the burning of tires in front of various offices of national and European authorities. On February 20, a major nationwide action was organised, with many highways and city centres blocked.

All the Polish farmers BIRN spoke to on the border complained that they are now being forced to sell their products at between half and two-thirds of the price they used to get before the war in Ukraine started, because supermarkets and intermediaries can now buy much cheaper Ukrainian products after the EU dropped import duties to support the Ukrainian economy.

For example, farmers used to get about 1,500 zloty (about 350 euros) per tonne of wheat two years ago, compared with just 700-800 zloty now. For corn, the drop has been from 900 zloty per tonne to around 400 zloty, the protesters said.

43-year-old Michal, the owner of a 120-hectare family farm and one of the protesters at Dorohusk, estimated his losses in the past year at 100,000 zloty (about 23,000 euros), while subsidies paid by the government from EU funds made up for only about a tenth of that.

“We don’t have a problem with supporting Ukraine,” he explained. “The problem is that the beneficiaries of this situation are Ukrainian oligarchs, the big businesses controlling the exports. And it’s us, regular family farms over here, who bear the costs.”

Polish farmers have actually been protesting since early 2023 over the Ukrainian import issue. Their actions forced the then-government of the Law and Justice party (PiS) to introduce a unilateral ban on cereal imports from Ukraine after a short-term European ban had expired. But farmers complain that the national ban – which is supposed to still be in place – is not being enforced in practice.

When BIRN visited, there were no Polish authorities in sight to do any checking and the farmers were themselves informally controlling the incoming Ukrainian trucks. The day before, Polish farmers had forced open some trucks, spilling grain out onto the road – proof, they said, that formally banned products were still coming in.

“The pigs change but the trough stays the same,” Michal said in response to a question about whether the actions of the previous PiS government or the current new one, made up of three centrist democratic parties, are in any way helping to meet farmers’ demands.

“We are forced to block the border because nobody listens to us in Warsaw, neither the former nor the present government. They are all happy to turn a blind eye while the cereals still get dumped in Poland,” he added.

Polish farmers have been cheered by the gathering support from farmers across Europe. “We’ve been protesting in Poland since January last year, but nobody paid any attention to us,” 66-year-old Krszysztof, another farmer at the Dorohusk crossing, told BIRN. “We understood faster what was happening because we are right here, close to Ukraine, but now they are all starting to get it. I think if farmers all over Europe rise up, they’ll be forced to listen to us.”

Message received

That call has now been taken up elsewhere in the region, with protests in Czechia and Slovakia starting on Monday and culminating on Thursday. Although complaints about cheaper produce from Ukraine is an issue, it is the huge amount of bureaucracy the EU imposes on farmers and food producers that is at the root of most of their complaints, as well as the European Green Deal, a policy intended to make the EU carbon-neutral by 2050.

“We want to raise animals, grow crops and produce food, not sit at a computer and decipher the sometimes even meaningless requirements of the European Commission, which are constantly changing and hindering the development of the countryside,” Andrej Gajdos, executive vice-president of the Slovak Chamber of Agriculture and Food Industry, said. “We are in favour of hearing our demands and a real discussion – this is the only way to restore the trust of European farmers and food producers in EU institutions.”

In the early hours of Monday morning, hundreds of tractors converged on Prague’s main thoroughfare from half a dozen directions, only temporarily disrupting traffic despite initial fears of urban chaos, and gathered in front of the Ministry of Agriculture, on the banks of the Vltava river.

Czech farmers are urging their government to defend their interests in the upcoming EU negotiations, crucially to reduce bureaucratic red-tape and reform the bloc’s subsidy policy to better support small and medium-sized farms.

A few hundred Hungarian farmers protested on February 16 at the Hungarian-Ukrainian border carrying banners like “No farmers, no food, no future” and several anti-EU ones like “Brussels betrayed us” and, alongside a coffin, “This is what Brussels wants for us”. Hardly surprising, given the protest was organised by the Hungarian Agriculture Chamber and the National Association of Farmers’ Circles (MAGOSZ), both closely associated with the eurosceptic Fidesz government.

“Why do they [the EU] think that contaminated food is good for us?” asked Balazs Gyorffy, chairman of the Agriculture Chamber rhetorically, alluding to the widespread belief that Ukrainian products are inferior or dangerous.

Populist advances

The farmers’ protests represent an opportunity for Europe’s populists, especially in the run-up to the elections for the European Parliament on June 6-9. But, at the same time, if the experience in the Czech Republic is anything to go by, it’s not one that all farmers are willing to concede to them.

Hungarian Prime Minister Viktor Orban, a seasoned politician, immediately spied the political potential in the farmers’ protests and has been trying to capitalise on them before the EU elections, which polling by the European Council on Foreign Relations suggests will likely see anti-European populists top the polls in nine member states (including Czech Republic, Hungary, Poland and Slovakia), and come second or third in a further nine countries.

On the eve of the last European Council summit on February 1, Orban met outside with protesting farmers on the streets of Brussels, telling them that “European leaders do not take people’s interests seriously, so new leaders must be elected”. And this week, he released a video accusing Brussels of trying to ruin the livelihoods of European farmers and calling for Ukrainian products to be banned from the European market.

The Hungarian Ministry of Agriculture told BIRN that, “The unrestricted access of Ukrainian products to the EU market has created unfair conditions and distorted the market for Hungarian and European agriculture, due to the huge differences in production standards.” It argued that maize, which is the worst affected by Ukrainian imports, costs around 146 euros/tonne in Hungary, while it is sold at over 200 euros/tonne in the EU.

The ministry also said it disagrees with the European Commission’s latest proposal to remove poultry, eggs and sugar from the banned list, but leave CEE countries to deal with the problem of cereals. “Until an international solution is found to restrict imports of Ukrainian grain, the Hungarian government is forced to maintain its unilateral import restriction”, the ministry wrote.

In Poland, the politics around the protests is more confused. While rural voters in general tended to lean towards the populist Law and Justice (PiS) party, support for the former ruling party has dropped over the past year, polls indicate. At the same time, farmers do not have an obvious single alternative to PiS.

According to Ruta Spiewak, a researcher from the Institute of Rural and Agricultural Development at the Polish Academy of Sciences, there are many different kinds of farmers and rural inhabitants in Poland, each with their own political preferences: some may still stick with PiS out of a lack of better options; some support the agrarian PSL party, which is now in the new governing coalition; some have been drawn to the far-right; and some are even backing Donald Tusk’s Civic Platform, which managed to attract farming protest leader Michal Kolodziejczak to its ranks in the run-up to the October general election.

Kolodziejczak, who is now a vice-minister in the Agriculture Ministry, visited Dorohusk on February 13, even attempting to conduct a parliamentary control on wagons bringing Ukrainian produce by rail into Poland via a crossing point near the blockade. He was refused access.

“He spent the whole day here with us in the cold, I’ll grant him that,” 53-year-old Piotr, another protester, said. “He’s trying to do things, but no one listens to him.”

However, the attempt by populists to hijack the Czech farmers’ protests this week largely backfired. Organised by the outspoken Bohumir Dufek, chairman of the Trade Union of Agriculture and Food Workers, and the no-less flamboyant former head of the Czech Agrarian Chamber and agro-baron Zdenek Jandejsek, the impressive display of strength and unity at Monday’s protest quickly faded, exposing the rift between some participating farmers and more radical elements riding the popular wave of anger against the unpopular five-party governing coalition of Prime Minister Petr Fiala.

By early Monday afternoon, Czech police announced on social media that most of the tractors were already heading home. Talking to local media, some demonstrators said they felt as if the event had been “stolen” from them and they were unable to communicate their actual grievances to authorities.

“This is not what we wanted,” one protester, Milos Novy, complained to Czech TV. “We wanted a peaceful protest, but we are a minority here today. We were not able to ensure that only farmers and people who have something to say about this protest were present.”

“There is no clear, unified political orientation among all the protesting farmers in the Czech Republic,” explains Michaela Kozminova, an analyst at the Prague-based Association of International Affairs (AMO), but “several of the protest’s speakers and organisers have previously been linked to far-right and disinformation groups.”

Part of the industry’s lack of unity on full display this week is also partly explained by the discrepancy between small and large farms, which Kozminova describes as “one of the leading issues of agricultural policy in the Czech Republic”.

Later that day, the rowdier elements gathered for a second protest in Prague’s historic centre, joined by notorious figures around Czechia’s disinformation and far-right scene, including PRO head Jindrich Rajchl and Trikolora president Zuzana Majerova.

Prime Minister Fiala, Agriculture Minister Marek Vyborny and other government figures soon accused the organisers of blatant pro-Russian tendencies and of pursuing “other goals than the interests of the farmers”.

In exchanges reminiscent of mass protests held at the end of last year in Prague, Fiala and his cabinet were in turn accused of “arrogance” by the populist opposition ANO and SPD parties, who lambasted the government for ignoring the all-too-real woes of Czechia’s agricultural sector since taking office, and bowing to the EU’s “catastrophic” green policies.

Both in Czechia and the rest of the EU, “the Green Deal is seen as a threat mainly by those who benefit from the status quo in agriculture and fear a transition to a more sustainable model,” Kozminova explains, especially large agribusinesses and the agrochemical industry.

While condemning the anti-democratic forces seeking to add fuel to the fire, the Czech government was keen to show it isn’t downplaying the difficulties faced by domestic farmers as a result of high energy prices, overbearing bureaucracy and the cheaper competition from non-EU countries, including Ukraine.

Agriculture Minister Vyborny insisted Prague was highly active at the European level to reduce the level of red tape – a promise he is bound to be closely scrutinised on when he attends the EU Agriculture Council meeting on February 26.

“The Czech Minister of Agriculture promised to advocate in Brussels for a reduction of the necessary bureaucracy in agriculture, and suggested several other measures, including non-taxation of agricultural subsidies or social security support,” AMO’s Kozminova says.

Vyborny also pledged to continue negotiations with the Czech Agrarian Chamber, the Agricultural Association and the Association of Private Agriculture – the country’s largest agricultural associations with whom the government has been holding close talks in recent weeks, and who had all distanced themselves from Monday’s protest in advance.

But should the government fail to deliver, they, too, stand ready to take to the streets, roads and borders.

On Thursday, the Czech Agrarian Chamber and other domestic organisations will join a pan-European movement – with delegations also expected from Slovakia, Hungary and Poland – to protest at selected border crossings across the region, just a few days before next week’s EU agriculture ministers’ meeting.

Asked by BIRN what outcome they expect from the meeting, the Agrarian Chamber said that Czech and CEE representatives “should request the reintroduction of the customs regime for Ukraine, support for the export of agricultural commodities, and the temporary increased use of agricultural commodities in the energy mix”.

If Czech Agriculture Minister Vyborny fails to present a proposal by March 1 “to help stop the further collapse of Czech agriculture”, the Agrarian Chamber will call on farmers to take part in protest drives and other demonstrations at the domestic level, its spokeswoman Barbora Pankova told BIRN.

Airless Tires Market: Industry Potential, Trends and forecast to 2032

Airless Tires Market is projected to cross USD 85 Mn by 2032. Increasing investments in the defense sector would support the deployment of airless tire technology in military vehicles. These tires can endure tough terrain and other environmental conditions. Features like puncture resistance and reduced weight would eliminate the need for military vehicles to carry a spare tire. This further reduces the weight of these vehicles and cuts the time used to repair punctured tires. Ongoing geopolitical tensions and conflicts between nations would ramp up the demand for military vehicles fitted with airless tires. For instance, the recent Russia-Ukraine conflict has driven the demand for combat vehicles over the last year.

Airless tires market share from the passenger & commercial vehicle segment is anticipated to observe more than 19.5% CAGR between 2023 and 2032. Rising sales for passenger vehicles and a need for puncture-resistant tires will drive product penetration. Many industry players are working on developing new airless tires specifically for the commercial sector. For instance, in 2023, Michelin partnered with DHL to test the airless tire dubbed Uptis. As part of this partnership, more than 50 DHL express vans will be using puncture-proof tires in Singapore by the end of 2023.

As per the report, the airless tires industry size from the rubber material segment is expected to surpass USD 30 million by 2032. Airless tires made using rubber function as a movable cushion and can better withstand the impact of vibrations and automobile-based shocks. New innovations in rubber technology will aid market players to develop advanced airless rubber tires. For instance, in 2020, Goodyear announced that it will launch tires using sustainable materials by the end of 2030. The company will also begin testing an airless tire on delivery robots at Ohio’s Bowling Green State University. Such developments are expected to boost the airless tire market growth in the coming years.
