Abstract

This research examines the relations between a faulty stakeholder management in the context of the Dutch nitrogen crisis and the willingness of the agricultural stakeholders to cooperate in future negotiations. A qualitative research method with a semi-structured interview layout is chosen to measure feelings, emotions, and experiences of the agricultural stakeholders effectively. The interviews resulted in notions of a lack of transparency, lack of inclusion of the agricultural stakeholders, and a lack of communication. This, however, did not affect the willingness to cooperate of the agricultural sector in future negotiations and, among some of the interviewees, even led to a higher willingness to cooperate. This can be explained by the fact that farmers have to defend their future incomes and that the associations represent the interests of the farmers. However, the relations between agricultural stakeholders and the authorities have worsened significantly by ineffective and overambitious policies.
