Strengthen organic farming and animal welfare
The Left wants to promote regional and organic farming and keep glyphosate, pesticides and genetic engineering off Hamburg's fields. On animal welfare, its demands include a roadmap for ending animal testing.
The Left wants farming without poison and without genetic engineering. Local farms and organic farms would get support. Animal testing in Hamburg should end. There would be a fixed plan for that.
Greenhouse gases from farming such as methane and nitrous oxide would be reduced, and a sustainability guide introduced. The program demands good working conditions for full-time and seasonal workers alike. Urban gardens would get more support. The Hamburg animal welfare association would get help with a new shelter, district veterinary offices would get more staff, and the dog law would be reviewed.
