Frustration at the border: German farmer is allowed to build, Dutch not | Hardenberg

The boundary never felt so sharp to Henry Fox. The dairy farmer has been farming on the edge of the Netherlands and Germany in Lattrop-Breklenkamp all his life. Two plots, a row of trees and a road. Not even 500 meters as the crow flies. That separates his company from the German border. The plots merge into each other, you cannot tell where the Netherlands ends and Germany begins. But when it comes to the future of his company, it feels like a world of difference.
