lpv:translated text	"Food prices have seen a very sharp rise recently. There are two reasons for this: firstly, the global agricultural and food product crisis and secondly, market concentration, which has increased from 21.7% in 1990 to over 70% at the moment. The prices paid by consumers are on average five times higher than those paid to producers. Supermarket chains very often impose unfair conditions and make it difficult for farmers and small suppliers to access the market. I support the European Commission’s idea of creating a European market monitoring system. I also support the idea of a European competition network. The funds from the Rural Development Programme should provide larger allocations in favour of producers. The idea of revamping the ‘local products’ concept and more effective support for traditional food markets are solutions which I strongly support."@en1
