.@agrarheute_com beschreibt die vielen Verlierer des wenig durchdachten Verbots der vorherigen Bundesregierung zum Töten männlicher Eintags- #Küken. Diese dienten größtenteils als wertvolles Futter für fleischfressende Tiere.

Translation:
@agrarheute_com reports about the chick culling ban’s many losers, which was adopted by the previous German government and prohibits killing male day-old chicks. These mainly served as nutritious food for carnivorous animals.
🇦🇹 found a better way of solving this issue! https://t.co/9skiD7wzVq

The Austrian flag serves as an allusion for the alternative solution adopted by the neighbouring country Austria. Unfortunately, bad policies have made this impossible in Germany.
