If Europeans eat less meat and dairy, this will have major consequences for farmers. New research shows that many barns and machines could lose their value. With the right policies, these losses can be limited. This is shown by research from Leiden, Oxford and Vienna.

I’m doing my part (to eat less meat).

"This creates room to manage the transition properly," says Paul Behrens of the University of Oxford. "In the long term, food production could even become cheaper, but only if policies and investments change now."

This is great news and I hope it incentivises farmers to transition to less exploitative and environmentally damaging practices.
