"Mr President, recent CAP reform will result in some fundamental changes, particularly at farm level. The decoupling of payments from production provides a new freedom to farm with, I hope, new opportunities. If we believe, as I do, that the European agricultural model must be multifunctional and sustainable, equally it must be commercially viable and competitive.
On the basis that the sector is likely to enjoy budget stability until 2013, we must use this time to initiate practical research as to how best to achieve this objective. It would be foolish and foolhardy to believe that the current level of budget support for agriculture will continue indefinitely. What would happen if this unthinkable scenario became reality? The only insurance is positive planning based on properly focused research. Two per cent of the current EU research budget for the entire agricultural sector does not facilitate the achievement of this objective.
In conclusion, I congratulate the rapporteur on his initiative in addressing this very timely and important question."@en1
