Our agrarian sector is indeed not known for its progressive outlook, so I'm not surprised.
Currently nitrogen deposition is a big issue as it fucks up local plantlife. Their lobby has been downplaying this problem since it became known in the fucking 80's, hindering every political attempt to take action.
Now that the point has been reached where action needs to be taken they are all Pickachu-faced and shouting "how did this happen, it's the fault of the leftwing treehuggers". No, fuck the farming lobby in particular for kicking that can down the lane for 40 years.
Blissfully ignoring the consequences of adverse actions and acting as if nothing bad will come out of it is fully ingrained in their thought process.
