About this listen

 Land is becoming an increasingly scarce commodity. Land use demands for housing and transportation but also solar energy production are making arable land scarce. Land speculation is on the rise all over Europe and the purchase and lease prices for arable land are skyrocketing. With dire consequences: small, family-run farms can barely survive on their agricultural yields. Democracy is also weakened when rural areas change so much and more and more farmers are on the brink of going out of business.
