lpv:translated text	". I voted in favour of the report on a new Animal Health Strategy for the EU because I am strongly in favour of sustainable agriculture and I can only endorse any policy measure or practice that seeks to promote it. The health and wellbeing of farm animals are essential in order to ensure public health through the production of healthy food. Animal health is closely linked to human health, owing to the possibility of direct or indirect transmission of certain diseases. Extremely high stocking densities in intensive farming systems may increase the risk of disease spread and hamper disease control. Although I agree that we must promote measures to ensure biological security on farms, we must also ensure that we do not gold-plate the eco-conditionality criteria. Nevertheless, I deplore the fact that the Commission Communication does not place greater value on veterinary experts, who, in my view, are the best placed to implement an effective strategy for the protection of animal health."@en1
