"Mister President, European socialists hope that Europe becomes an example for the whole world in terms of life quality. The 27 Member States are now building a new social Europe which will bring prosperity to all citizens of the European Union.
From the Union’s budget for 2008, almost 45% is allocated to growth, innovation, job creation and economic and social cohesion, and 42,6% is allocated to agriculture. Rural areas represent 90% of the European Union territory.
Despite the EURO 41 million allocated to agriculture in 2008, the increase of costs for agricultural works and the increase in energy prices brought about an increase in prices of agricultural products and caused the economic situation to deteriorate. I consider that the grants policy for agriculture and adequate conditions for the promotion of investments in the field are the answer to part of the challenges the Union will encounter in the following years.
A developed agriculture will allow all European citizens to have access to healthy food and sufficient quantities, at affordable prices. Healthy nutrition is a fundamental aspect of life quality."@en1
