lpv:translated text	". This proposal for a regulation for the cereals sector highlights the strategy of the latest CAP reforms: lower prices and the gradual deregulation of the markets. Compensation for income is only partial, with direct aid covering 50% of the fall in prices. This strategy promotes the concentration and intensification of production and greater farm size, increasing the desertification of the rural world. Furthermore, a 45% reduction in cereal prices has led to an increased cost to the budget of EUR 630 million. We have supported some of the rapporteur's proposals, specifically the inclusion of rye on the list of cereals eligible for intervention and the references made to protecting the Community preference, but we do not accept the principle of decoupling aid from production for the cereals sector. We also reject the idea of aid for the potato starch sector, which supports huge food corporations from only a few Member States, when what is really needed is regulation and support for potatoes for consumption. A wide-ranging reform of the CAP has become necessary, guaranteeing similar levels of support and market regulation for Mediterranean produce. Unless this happens, we will not be able to remedy the profound injustices in the distribution of aid and we will be sending the wrong message to producers in regions and countries with climatic conditions that are more suited to other types of production."@en1
