AfD Kompakt, November 5, 2021.
The farmers already for 30 years have been very heavily
financially burdened by low proceeds for grain and meat. The rising costs for
fertilizer and fuel are an additional important cost factor in each yearly
balance of the operations. So as to approximately compensate for this financial
prejudice, tax breaks [Steurvergünstigungen]
for farm diesel and the exemption of farm machinery from the Kfz [motor vehicle] tax are needed and
need urgently continue to be maintained. An abolition of these measures would
further accelerate the structural transformation and displace foodstuffs
production to foreign countries.
On that account, the AfD Bundestag delegation expresses
itself as strictly opposed to the demands of the Federal Environmental Office
and stands as before at the side of German agriculture.
