"Mr President, Commissioner, some parts of this agreement are really interesting, for example countries being able to introduce obligatory contracts governing volumes and minimum duration, as well as prices. These new contracts will also enable farmers and companies to set prices jointly, and will be valid for at least six months. It is true that this will give farmers more stability and greater benefits, Commissioner, but it is only a first step. Commissioner, the truth is that the industry in this sector continues to take advantage of its negotiating position, dragging down farmers’ prices. This is bringing this sector to its knees, subjecting farmers to uncertainty and jeopardising their future. Commissioner, I have been speaking recently to farmers in my region, Cantabria, and as you know very well the situation is very complicated, very difficult. I hope that more steps will be taken in future to really keep this sector going."@en1
