"Madam President, we are dealing with a scandal, but calling it a scandal is putting it too mildly. It is a major threat to the life and health of thousands of people. I hope those who are responsible will be identified and appropriately punished, but I hope this matter will also be cause for reflection on the model of agriculture which has arisen in the European Union. Agriculture has become an industry. We do not have animal husbandry any more – we have meat production. We have huge farms, we have the animal feed industry and we have animals raised on feed – and the feed contains dioxins. The feed also contains genetically modified materials which have not been fully tested, and this model of agriculture does not work. It is a model which does not guarantee food safety.
The solution is greater respect and regard for those farms, which we still have in Europe – in Poland and in other countries – which are based on feed they produce themselves. We ought to support this."@en1
