We voted in favour of this report, which supports the adoption of the conclusion of the protocol on mountain farming. The protocol was initialled by the EC at the Ministerial Conference of the Alpine Convention at Chambéry on 20 December 1994.
Under the overarching goal of sustainable development, the aim of the Protocol on Mountain Farming, provided for in Article 1, is to ensure and promote appropriate and environmentally friendly agriculture in the Alpine region as an essential contribution to the maintenance of populated sites and sustainable economic activities. This includes producing high-quality traditional produce, safeguarding the natural environment, protecting against natural risks and conserving the beauty and the value of the landscape. Contracting parties are required to optimise the multifunctional role of mountain farming.
It is essential that support be provided for less-favoured areas, as in the case of the Alpine region, which is characterised by its wealth of natural resources, including water resources, agricultural potential, historical and cultural heritage, value for quality of life and for economic and leisure activities not only for the local but also for other populations. However, the Alpine region is also characterised by difficult living and production conditions for farming activities due to geomorphological and climatic conditions."@en1
