The small farm debate has taken on special significance with the last two EU enlargements of 2004 and 2007, more than tripling the number of subsistence and semi-subsistence farmers to 11 million in the EU-27. Some 140 people attended a seminar entitled ‘Semi-subsistence farming in the EU: current situation and future prospects’, organised by the ENRD in Romania in 2010.
