There are also criticisms from other groups. The CDA co-governs in the province, but party chairman Chris Westerlaken does not just plan to impose the nitrogen reduction targets on farmers without will. “What we are seeing now is the beginning of a degradation of the quality of life in rural areas.” Coalition partner ChristenUnie is not cheering either. This will put pressure on the collaboration with GroenLinks, D66 and PvdA, which, although critically in favor of this plan, will in the coming period.
