“Ik ben onlangs naar een spreekbeurt geweest van de<br />
Boerenbond, en daar hoorde ik diezelfde voorlichter die vijf jaar<br />
geleden ‘je moet specialiseren’ s<strong>to</strong>nd te preken, nu de boeren<br />
aanpraten dat ze èn grove groenten èn akkerbouw èn varkens<br />
èn aardappelen en nog een hectare fruit moeten bijnemen.<br />
Het landbouwbeleid en de voorlichters zijn stuurloos geworden”<br />
“I recently attended a lecture by <strong>the</strong> Boerenbond, and <strong>the</strong>re I<br />
heard that same advisor that preached "you have <strong>to</strong><br />
specialize” five years ago, now advised farmers <strong>to</strong> grow raw<br />
vegetables and arable farming and pigs and pota<strong>to</strong>es and<br />
foresee more hectares of fruit […] The agricultural policy and<br />
<strong>the</strong> information officers have become rudderless.”<br />
