Secure farming and horticulture in Hamburg
The SPD wants to keep farming and horticulture in Hamburg despite scarce land. Compensation areas are not to reduce production, farm succession is to be secured, and weekly markets are to be strengthened.
Hamburg should keep its farms and nurseries. The SPD wants farms to find successors. Land set aside for nature should not shrink harvests. Weekly markets should get better advertising.
Instead of losing farmland, compensation areas are to be chosen better or implemented as production-integrated compensation areas (PIK). If a farm has to close, neighboring farms are to be asked first whether they can use the land to expand. The SPD wants to examine whether farms can be paid for services to the environment, climate and flood protection. Such funding is to be open to organic and conventional farms alike. Weekly markets are to be strengthened mainly through professional marketing.

„Das Ausweisen von Ausgleichsflächen darf nicht zu sinkender landwirtschaftlicher Erzeugung führen.“Translation: Designating compensation areas must not lead to falling agricultural production.
