lpv:translated text	"There are clear distortions in food markets today, and these have an adverse effect on both producers and consumers. The former, in particular, have seen a constant increase in production costs, while at the same time losing bargaining power vis-à-vis distributors. This imbalance is threatening to jeopardise the viability of many farms, which can only worry policy makers, particularly in the EU, in view of the possibility of the desertification of rural areas and increased unemployment in traditionally less developed regions. This pressure on producers is particularly significant in the outermost regions of the EU. I hope that a fairer and more transparent relationship might be possible between the various stakeholders in this market, without jeopardising its fundamental freedom, as this would guard against abuse of a dominant position and enable greater stability for farmers, as well as healthier competition."@en1
