"Since women make up 42% of those involved in the agricultural sector, it is clear that they play an important role in rural areas and farm business. There must be recognition and support for women and for the contribution they make to agriculture and rural life and, to this end, I support this important report. There must be due recognition given in EU agricultural policies in future to the role of women. I support what the report says on the excellent work of women’s networks in energising rural communities and promoting equality and social inclusion in the countryside. They must get more political support at local, national and European level. In Ireland, for example, the ICA is an important and influential organisation in rural areas which celebrated 100 years of existence recently, it has approximately 11 000 members and has been supporting rural women for a long time now. Proper support must be given to those local organisations and they must be taken into account in EU agricultural policies in the future."@en1
