"The concept of ‘food sovereignty’ includes the need to guarantee populations sufficient means to deal with situations of hunger. This is currently one of the greatest challenges in terms of economic development. For proof, we need only remember the recent price rises in the food product markets: according to the rapporteur, although holdings in commodity index funds increased from USD 13 billion in 2003 to USD 317 billion in 2008, basic demand and production only increased 1.4% in the same period It cannot be denied that EU action contributing to ‘food sovereignty’ in developing countries, with a focus on their populations, would be timely. I voted for this report because I agree with this course of action."@en1
