"Mr President, Europe’s dairy sector will experience a major shift following the expiry of dairy quotas, which may upset the balance between farmers and dairy processing companies in terms of bargaining power. This may also lead to unfair commercial practices when setting farm-gate prices. Such a process would be of particular harm to small producers, especially in countries where there are many small farms. It is precisely for that reason that the European Union should support cooperation between farmers and their organisation into producer associations and cooperatives. This would strengthen their bargaining power in future. Supporting cooperation is particularly relevant in Lithuania and those countries where farmer cooperation has not received adequate support. We will thus protect farmers from unfair competition in the dairy sector. I would like to thank Mr Nicholson for excellent negotiations."@en1
