"Consumers must know which region the food they are buying is produced and grown in, and there must be clear information available about that food.
I voted in favour of the report, and I welcome what it says on extending the mandatory labelling concerning the country of origin of products to include fresh pork, mutton and chicken. Currently, country-of-origin labelling on fresh beef, fruit and vegetables, honey and olive oil is mandatory, and consumers are often misled when there is a lack of clear information about an item’s country of origin.
European farmers produce high-quality food that is safe to eat and complies with legislation on environmental protection and animal welfare. Country-of-origin labelling on goods being sold on the EU market helps consumers make informed choices when buying fresh meat and other products."@en1
