"Mr President, Commissioner, the dairy package being presented here as an instrument for organising the sector includes positive and important elements, such as strengthening the role of producer and interbranch organisations, and contractual aspects, which could be a step forward in the relationship between producers and processing companies in some Member States. However, it leaves us a long way off the instruments that the sector needs in order to prosper in the coming years within a European agricultural framework where value is, as we would like, fairly distributed in the food chain, rather than a form of agriculture transformed into large-scale intensive farms concentrated in a few Member States.
While improving the self-regulation conditions in the relationships between sectoral stakeholders is desirable, thinking that this in itself is sufficient is a serious mistake that could drive thousands of milk producers, dozens of regions and even some countries out of dairy production. The debate on regulating the dairy sector with a view to an economically, socially and environmentally sustainable sector throughout the EU still needs to take place. Furthermore, we will not be able to abandon the milk quota scheme without ensuring effective instruments for managing supply."@en1
