"Madam President, I welcome this timely report from Elisabeth Jeggle and thank her for her good cooperation.
Not many people realise that 42% of those engaged regularly in agriculture are women, and that three out of every ten holdings in the EU are managed by women. In order for women and families to remain in the countryside and make their contribution to achieving the objectives of the EU 2020 strategy through agriculture, there must be a range of services and facilities for normal everyday life. These services should include such things as healthcare and care services, education, leisure, transport and broadband.
It is crucial that all services are not just market-oriented. There also needs to be proper social insurance for women working in agriculture so that their future and their pensions can be guaranteed. It is also important for women’s entrepreneurial skills to be facilitated and, across the board, for women to be involved in decision making at local and regional level, in farm organisations and, indeed, in all decision-making bodies. That will have a huge impact and will help ensure women’s future role in agriculture."@en1
