"According to the Food and Agriculture Organisation of the UN, food production must be increased by at least 70% to meet the global demand for food, it being estimated that there will be more than 9 billion people in the world by 2050. Furthermore, 900 million people are suffering from severe hunger as a result of extreme poverty, and another 2 billion are in danger of hunger as a result of poverty. Even though it appears that there is enough food available, many people do not have the money to buy their basic food materials. The issue of access to food must be tackled. To this end, we fully support the measures that are discussed in the report in relation to the security of food supply. The agricultural sector and CAP have a very important role as we try to achieve food security in the EU and in the wider world. CAP must, after 2013, be able to tackle the new challenges of food security, such as climate change, volatility in the market and territorial equality. As trade agreements between the EU and third countries are being discussed, the basic right in relation to access to food must be protected."@en1
