"As the author is not present, Question No 34 by Niall Andrews () lapses. Question No 35 by Jean-Louis Bernié (): The ban on animal meal could have provided an opportunity for expanding vegetable protein production in the Union, but the Commission, without any consultation, decided to rule out any such plan, claiming the cost would be too high. However, encouraging farmers to grow protein crops would have allowed us to restore balance to European farming by escaping from cereal monoculture which requires the increased use of fungicides. This decision will also inevitably entail huge and ever-increasing GM soya imports from the US. On what data did the Commission base its conclusion that the financial cost involved in a protein crop programme would outweigh the need to combat soil impoverishment, a serious degree of food dependence and increased use of GMOs in Europe?"@en1
