The Farmsubsidy project

/resarch since 2004-ongoing/ - “New money for old names” was one of the many headlines that appeared in various European media when the recipients of the EU’s largest lump of expenses became public – the European farmers and farmbusiness.

Read some of the articles from the various countries, and find data on Farmsubsidy.org.
