lpv:spoken text	"Mr President, if European farmers are to be competitive, even in their home markets, they must cut the cost of their inputs. Mr Bové was quite right to encourage farmers to cultivate their own seeds rather than relying on seed monopolies, and also to recycle phosphates and nitrogen rather than relying on ever more expensive purchases, and, of course, to return to the production of traditional products. He has also shown himself to be aware of the burden of the cost of complying with legislation – much of it, of course, EU legislation. He might have mentioned the costs of the new enriched poultry cages that have to be borne by countries complying with this very welcome legislation but not, of course, by those countries that have studiously ignored it. The gap between farm gate prices and the prices paid by consumers has been mentioned by other speakers. The power of oligopsonist supermarkets must be broken. They treat farmers as though they were medieval serfs put on earth to serve big business retailers."@en1
