Natural habitat restoration goals, EU

The European Parliament has given preliminary approval to a directive requiring restoring natural ecosystems, with explicit quotas.

The article fails to give any details about the concessions given to protesting farmers. I wish I knew what they were. Without specific information, I can only speculate that the farmers had some valid demands, and that a careful compromise could have grafted those more or less, but that right-wing politicians stirred them up to make extreme and harmful demands, which I hope they did not gain.
