flag France and Italy seek to delay EU carbon rules on fertilizers, citing farmer costs and supply issues.

flag France and Italy are pushing to exclude fertilisers from the EU’s Carbon Border Abatement Mechanism (CBAM), seeking a one-year extension to shield farmers from high costs and supply disruptions. flag The move, driven by low crop prices and reduced Russian supplies, could weaken CBAM’s global influence and affect exporters like Australia, especially canola producers facing strict EU sustainability standards. flag While the scheme remains active, the resistance highlights tensions between climate goals and agricultural viability, with ongoing concerns about how EU policies may impact international trade and market access.
