lpv:translated text	"Mr President, ladies and gentlemen, there is no doubt that the dairy market is one of the central markets of the European Union and I believe that we witnessed this during the most recent crisis in 2009/2010. I might point out, however, that there are parts of the EU, like the mountainous area I come from, where the dairy market plays a central role. If the farmers in these areas are unable to produce milk, they have no alternative livelihood. What are they supposed to produce on their meadows and pastures if they cannot produce milk? How are they supposed to generate an income, if not with milk? Mr Dalli, I think that the restructuring you refer to may work well in some parts of the European Union, because alternatives exist there. What scope for restructuring exists for farmers in mountainous areas, however? For them, restructuring generally means locking the cowshed doors and closing down their businesses. I believe that this is why people in these areas feel under pressure and worry about what is going to happen after the quotas are phased out. We are fooling ourselves if we believe that the solution here is to strengthen the first or second pillar. Farmers cannot live on this in the final analysis. That is why we need intervention in the market with regulatory measures. I could certainly envisage special assistance programmes for producers in these difficult mountain areas, for example, after the quotas have been phased out. If we fail to do this, then we cannot agree to allow the milk quota to be phased out without further ado."@en1
