2nd EPP European Congress of Young Farmers

After the success of the first edition in 2012, MEPs Nuno Melo, Elisabeth Köstinger, Mariya Gabriel and Auxiliadora Correa Zamora, in cooperation with CAP, the Portuguese Farmers' Confederation, and ASAJA, the Spanish Farmers' Organisation, will organise the 2nd EPP European Congress of Young Farmers in the European Parliament on Wednesday.

This congress is seen as a great opportunity to promote and support the work of young farmers in the EU and their importance in the agriculture sector. It will gather together hundreds of farmers from 19 Member States in order to share experiences and good practices.
