     > EU fertilizer production relies heavily on natural gas, which determines roughly 70% of production costs. While the industry features over 120 production sites across member states, the EU is largely dependent on imports from countries like Russia, Egypt, and Morocco to meet domestic agricultural demand.
     
     better disincentivize local agriculture :thumbs_up_killua: so on the other side they can subsidize diesel for farmers who struggle. but only if you fill out 53 pages of forms. then the EU turns around and says that nobody is using the subsidies. sad noises. 😄
