As part of the ALIMENTERRE Festival, 4 documentaries will lead to reflections on our food systems and their global interdependencies. The agricultural sector crisis heavily impacts the dairy sector. The end of quotas has mechanically led to overproduction, lowering the price paid to farms. This benefits the industry which increasingly exports their surplus, particularly butter whose price per ton has doubled in recent years. Once the fat is extracted, a dry powder remains, which industries have managed to profit from. For a few years now, they have been re-enriching these milk powder residues with palm oil and flooding African countries with them at low prices. Local producers are penalized, and this powder, this “fake milk,” further weakens local communities. People are fighting to change this deadly system that impoverishes producers in Europe and Africa.
