This report is particularly important for farmers in new EU Member States, including Lithuania, because it provides for direct payment conditions for the 2013 transitional period. The new EU Member States are given the opportunity to be admitted to the framework of complementary direct payments, under which their farmers could receive payments that are up to 20% higher. This will encourage greater European integration because currently the size of payments to farmers in some Member States is several times greater than in others. This is wrong given that the costs of farming are similar across the EU. I voted in favour of this report because it is a good example of a compromise achieved through difficult negotiations. It offers hope that in other difficult negotiations on the financial perspective 2014-2020 of agriculture policy it will be possible to achieve greater justice in the area of direct payments for all farmers in EU Member States. This is particularly relevant for farmers in the three Baltic States because the payments they currently receive are the lowest in the EU."@en1
