"Europeans must have access to a healthy, varied, balanced and diversified diet. Today, agriculture and its food production are highly strategic, and their international regulation is of the utmost importance. Food is a very specific issue, and encouraging competition in agriculture between the different regions of the world jeopardises the food security of our communities. It is at least as much by improving the productivity of the territories as by becoming more competitive internationally that we will achieve a higher degree of self-sufficiency in the EU. In addition, the EU should seek to secure the income earned by producers, mainly through their own labour. In the light of the reform applicable in 2014, the common agricultural policy must respond to the following priorities: viable food production, sustainable management of natural resources, measures for combating climate change and balanced territorial development. If the EU’s agricultural policy is to secure the supply of safe and high quality foods, while contributing to the protection of the environment and to renewable energy, its funding will have to be commensurate with its goals."@en1
