One omitted topic was the quality of food the consumers end up with in the aftermath. Consumers are the largest party in the conflict and their wellbeing (i.e. quality of food) is usually not considered. In the profit-driven world farming industry seems to gravitate towards monoculture and global export. Sure, it may lower the price of food, but I would argue that we don't need cheap food. We don't need the shelves flooded with corn cans, wheat and low quality sunflower oil. They might not require fertilizers but farmers still need to use pesticides. To be blunt, the video is great, but it hits all the wrong strings... albeit all that are now in news. Politicians would love nothing more but the problem of high prices to solve itself so they can point to some positive statistics. They won't be around when EU will start having obesity problem like US... though it might be a stretch to seek causation between cheap food and health dysfunctions. There might be more aspects like education, ads, culture...

Free market, same chances/support for small evenly and competition must be a basis of eu now and in future, it's needed 'like a salt' ;)
