Agriculture Commissioner Phil Hogan (pictured) is in the Hague, the Netherlands, today (9 January) where he is participating in a Citizens Dialogue on the future of food and farming in the EU. He will be joined on stage by Carola Schouten, Deputy Prime Minister, Minister of Agriculture, Nature and Food Quality of the Netherlands.

Commissioner Hogan presented on 29 November the orientations proposed by the European Commission on the future of the Common Agricultural Policy. This Citizens' Dialogue is part of a series of engagements between the Commission and key stakeholders in the agri-food sector that are ongoing throughout the Union since the adoption of the Commission's Communication. On the occasion of his visit to the Netherlands, Commissioner Hogan will also have a bilateral meeting with Ms Schouten and will attend the official opening of the Dutch Federation of Agriculture and Horticulture (LTO Nederland) Office. Citizens' Dialogues are a regular feature of the daily work of the Juncker Commission. All members of the Commission travel to regions and cities across Europe to engage in dialogue with citizens and listen to their views and expectations concerning the future of the Union. Since the beginning of the mandate, over 130 dialogues were held in more than 80 towns.

Today's dialogue with Commissioner Hogan will take place from 14h30 to 15h30 and will be web-streamed here.
