If the deployment of digital and fiber was at the heart of the last session of the Chamber of Agriculture on December 6, with the presence of Antoine Delaunay, president of Manche Numérique and its director Rachid Mammeri, the censure voted the day before at the The National Assembly, overthrowing the Barnier government by 331 votes, was invited.
The Channel concerned
The deputy, Stéphane Travert, returned to the consequences for French agriculture. ” The consequences of this censorship directly concern our territory and particularly agriculture “, he laments. This draft budget provided answers to farmers. ” With censorship, these measures are moving away “, he regrets. And he listed them: the cancellation of the increase in the tax on non-road diesel (GNR), the calculation of agricultural pensions over the best 25 years from 2026, reductions in charges to improve competitiveness. They are all moving away. It is also the abandonment of the TFNB exemption raised from 20 to 30%, the reduction in the deductible accounting provision to support livestock farming. cattle, on exemptions for young farmers and for untaxed capital gains, the decline in the strengthening of transmission to young people and the increase in the AITA budget to 20 million euros, the decline in perpetuation of relief for seasonal agricultural workers (TODE), the abandonment of farmers without the cash flow loans announced a few weeks ago.
A different heartbeat
” This censorship leads to weakening and setback for French agriculture “, he denounces. As for the PLOA which will not be taken up in the Senate in January, ” it made perfect sense to support agriculture in its great change “, he explains.
For the Mercosur agreements, signed since the session of the Chamber of Agriculture, ” the government's voice was essential. Alone, the president was on the front line “, he emphasizes. Without government, the continuity of public service continues. Current affairs and urgent matters are managed. ” The heart of the state continues to beat “, reassure the elected officials, ” but with a different heartbeat “, concludes Stéphane Travert.
Agricultural managers will meet parliamentarians to take stock and reiterate the expectations of the profession.
