Join EURACTIV and our Agrifood journalists on Wednesday 27 October for a Twitter Chat on the resilience of European agriculture and farmers in the face of COVID-19

Our Twitter account @eaAgrifood will share the following questions on Twitter and invite you to share responses using #eaAgrifood:

Q1. Have the Commission's measures been enough to cope with fallout from the COVID-19 pandemic?

Q2. How has trade helped in dealing with hardships caused by the pandemic?

Q3. What are the main take away messages from the management of the COVID-crisis when it comes to resilience and food security?

Q4. Which threats other than COVID do you think puts the greatest strain on the resilience of European agriculture in the future?

Q5. Do you feel hopeful for the agrifood sector post-COVID?

What is a Twitter chat, and how do you join?

A Twitter Chat is a discussion between Twitter users that get online at a pre-arranged date and time to discuss a specific topic using a designated #hashtag (for this chat it’s #eaAgrifood). The hashtag links the questions and answers in a virtual conversation.

As the host of the Twitter Chat, @eaAgrifood will post questions identified as Q1, Q2 and so on, to prompt answers from participants, which are identified as A1, A2 and so on. We will moderate the answers and ask follow up questions to participants. Please be sure to use the #eaAgrifood when answering the questions.

The Twitter Chat will last about an hour. The best way to see the entire conversation is to search for the hashtag #eaAgrifood on twitter and switch to the "latest tweets" tab.
