In Episode 54 of 'Food for Europe!' we'll be discussing mental health in agriculture.
Long working hours, financial worries, isolation and loneliness, are among the many reasons farmers are struggling. That leaves us to ask: What does it mean to be a farmer in today's world? At the same time, there is a lot that can be done – and the European Commission is aware of the problem.
Our guests this time are Maria Gafo, Head of the Social Sustainability Unit at the European Commission's Directorate-General for Agriculture and Rural Development; David Meridith, Head of Agri-Food and Spatial Analysis at the Irish Agriculture and Food Development Authority; Peter Lundqvist, a professor at the Swedish University of Agricultural Sciences, and Peter Hynes, a farmer from Ireland who has struggled with mental health issues.
