Marco Koeune

Marco Koeune is the president of the Baueren-Allianz, an organization representing farmers in Luxembourg. He has been vocal about the implications of the EU-Mercosur trade agreement, emphasizing the need for sustainable practices and protective measures for local agriculture. Koeune argues that while the agreement offers potential economic benefits, it also poses significant threats to the agricultural sector due to increased competition from low-cost imports. He supports the efforts of Agrar-Kommissar Christophe Hansen to introduce safeguards within the agreement to ensure that Luxembourg's farmers are not adversely affected.
