I came across a tweet by a journalist named Benny Johnson:

This tweet shows an interview clip of a man named David Icke. Both Benny Johnson and David Icke are not familiar to me, but I think what Mr. Icke said is worth considering. Below is what he said:
Why has the Dutch government, the guy called Rutte, the prime minister completely owned by the World Economic Forum and Klaus Schwab, why has he just announced that the Netherlands, the second biggest exporter of food in the world, is targeting farmers to destroy them and get them off the land, which is why all this farming protests in the Netherlands have come forth?
At a time of food shortages and supply chain problems, you are targeting the second biggest exporter of food in the bloody world, to destroy its farming base. Why are you doing that? If people depend on you for what's left of the food, you control them. Where food is abundant and cheap, you do not control them. Where energy is cheap and abundant, you do not control them. Scarcity equals dependency equals control. That's why they're targeting the food chain, targeting the energy supply, targeting everything.
I decided to dig a bit about his assertion.
According to DutchReview, the Netherlands is indeed the second largest food exporter in the world:
Farming for the future: why the Netherlands is the second largest food exporter in the world
Thanks to decades of innovation and hard work, the Netherlands is the world’s second-largest agricultural exporter, after the U.S.

Also, the Dutch government is planning to destroy the farmers in order to reduce "nitrogen pollution" and the farmers are protesting. Here is an article by DutchNews:
Ministry figures suggest 29,000 farms could be hit by nitrogen plans
Finance ministry calculations suggest 11,200 livestock farmers would have to close down and a further 17,600 would need to reduce the number of animals they keep in order to meet EU rules on nitrogen pollution.
...
Farmers are protesting at government aims to reduce nitrogen compound emissions by 50% by 2030, and by 75% in protected nature reserves known as Natura 2000 areas, in line with EU rules. The most recent round of demonstrations were sparked by a government announcement in June, suggesting some farm closures were inevitable and the publication of a detailed map suggesting which areas needed reductions from 12% to 95%.

We can get a glimpse of the Dutch government's ties with the World Economic Forum via the following article from the Expose:
Documents prove the Dutch Government is colluding with the WEF to implement The Great Reset
Documents released in response to an FOI request submitted by a member of the Dutch House of Representatives show that the Dutch Government is colluding with the World Economic Forum to implement The Great Reset.
‘The Netherlands is the proud host of the Global Co-ordination Secretariat (“GCS”) for the worldwide network of Food Innovation Hubs’, wrote Foodvalley; the leading European innovation hub in this network.
...
What Foodvalley did not mention is that the Netherlands was host to the GCS because the Dutch government was planning to fund it.Foodvalley also avoids pointing out that the initiative has a “special attention for development and implementation of key enabling technologies e.g., Digitalisation Artificial Intelligence, Internet of Things, biotechnology and micro and nanotechnology in the Agri Food sector.”
...
I don't know about nitrogen pollution, but it seems nitrogen produced by farming can be bad for environment. Let's assume this is true. The Netherlands' food export is the second largest in the world, which means that agricultural production is heavily concentrated there. No wonder the Netherlands has relatively high level of nitrogen emission. Other EU countries won't have much problem meeting nitrogen rules because they are importing food from the Netherlands.
It seems that, knowingly or unknowingly, EU came up with some blanket nitrogen rules that could lead to its own starvation. Why is the Dutch government going along with this stupidity? Maybe David Icke's statement about the WEF is the answer. If the Netherlands' farming goes down, it won't be just those farmer's problem only.
