Tractor Dakar with Rasa. "Freedom of choice, grain prices and young sloths (VIDEO)

Austė Korbutė, chairwoman of the association "Freedom to Choose", was a guest speaker at this "Ministry of Affairs" event, where she said that the propaganda of the environmentalists and the vegans is already hindering the consumer's right to choose and the rights of all people to choose.

„Moreover, it also undermines agriculture, which is presented as the biggest polluter of the planet. The activation of these myths is what stimulates us to act," said Austė Korbutė on the programme.

Ignas Jankauskas observes that 1% of those shouting about the damage of agriculture are achieving a lot. „A large part of the public just passively watches while the 1% screams loudly“, – says I. Jankauskas.

Following this topic, we talked about the upcoming Tractor Dakar on 21 June. Rasa Rasimaitė, who was behind the wheel of a „Massey Ferguson“ tractor, filmed a promotional video for it. See if we will see Rasa at the Tractor Dakar and what debt she has repaid to Jolanta Grey, one of the organisers of the Tractor Dakar, in this episode of „Ministry of Affairs“.

We also touched on the issue of farmer funding, some grain prices and Ramūnas Karbauskis' massive dairy project.

„Ministry of Affairs“ is a weekly programme for the farming community and those sympathetic to rural affairs. In this programme, farmers Rasa Rasimaitė, Ignas Jankauskas and Gediminas Stanišauskas, editor-in-chief of „Agrobitė“, discuss the latest news of the week.
