Translation of "Konventionelle landwirtschaft" in English

Then there is also outdoor agriculture.

Whether conventional or organic farming, it does not matter.

And in other instances we use conventional agriculture, which we'll get onto in the drawings as we go through the subject.

Conventional intensive agriculture causes a range of environmental impacts and is partly responsible for a loss of biodiversity.

Since 40 years we develop plant fortifiers and fertilizers for organic and conventional farming.

We can neither feed the world through conventional agriculture nor keep our planet unpolluted

They are made from high-quality non-homogenised Slovenian milk (conventional or organic).

The role of agriculture in the process of fighting climate change must take into consideration the competitive position of the EU's agri-foodstuffs sector in the world market, so solutions must be found that allow conventional agriculture to contribute to the sustainable management of the environment, while at the same time protecting it from speculation on foodstuffs in the commodities market and the protectionism of international trade.

To begin with, this must involve a massive increase in the use of resources under the common agricultural policy for conversion to organic farming, so that it becomes attractive to conventional farmers.

The best solution would have been to allow conventional farmers to sow set-aside land with protein crops before 15 August 2001, but the Commission did not accept this.

I am also pleased that the Commission will be tabling a proposal shortly in which it will indicate how GMO farming, organic farming and traditional farming can continue to exist side by side.

Throughout this debate, however, bearing in mind the opinions presented at the parliamentary hearing, the conclusion we are bound to reach is that contamination cannot really be avoided in the large-scale presence of genetically modified crops, with consequences ranging from the loss of biodiversity to economic damage to conventional and organic farming.

Whilst, of course, safeguarding Budget neutrality, it is not only cultivation of organic areas that needs to be promoted, as the Commission proposes, but conventional agriculture should also have the opportunity to cultivate plant proteins, fodder legumes and so on, in their fields, benefiting from the EU's environmental programmes.

But, Commissioner, the European Union’s own knowledge centre has calculated that in the event of the uncontrolled use of this genetic technology, also in traditional farming, costs would rise from 1 to 41% depending on the crop, because we have no idea how the consumer will react.

Not only do we need to know what the impact on organic farming is, but also on traditional farming, and also how the consumers will react to this.

Using land that cannot support conventional agriculture, pastoralists and agro-pastoralists produce meat, milk, and livestock products that sustain millions.

On the other hand, many contributions warned of the dangers to organic or conventional farming (35, 95, 133, 198) and sustainable development (225), as well as the contamination of conventional plant and animal species (53, 75, 82, 118, 119, 134, 150).

Integrated production is the direction in which, little by little, conventional production is headed.

The research should focus on conventional and organic farming (95, 176, 247, 284), product quality and wholesomeness (145, 189), the stem cells of the human spinal column (174, 262).

Farming organisations were worried about genetically modified organisms (GMOs), the risk of their contaminating conventional crops, the impossibility of guaranteeing the harmlessness of imported seeds and produce (soya and maize).

What are the prospects for the co-existence of genetically modified, conventional and organic crops, or the assimilation of the techniques of modern biotechnology into conventional and organic farming?

I would also draw your attention to the fact that, in recent years, conventional farming has been put under pressure.

It is highly unlikely that traditional farms will become obsolete, as there are many crops that are not suited for vertical farming, and the production costs are currently much lower.

For several years, moreover, conventional agriculture has been increasingly subject to strict environmental and animal welfare rules. This has meant the development of new approaches and methodologies, such as integrated agriculture55.

It is also important to note that, while reducing EU agricultural production, extensifying or meeting onerous conditions in agriculture may address climate change problems, there is a risk of ‘exporting’ the emissions to other countries that continue to produce without addressing climate change problems and that could fill the food supply gap.
