I vote for this report on the promotion of agricultural products, which aims to draw attention to a ‘taste of Europe’ that is authentic, varied and tasty for the consumer. While historically promotion measures were put in place to deal with agricultural surpluses and, later on, food crises, it is now time to more clearly define a promotion policy which serves to stimulate and reward products included in quality schemes and reward farming practices which produce fewer CO
emissions, protect biodiversity and are better suited to maintaining the quality of soils. To that end, a clear definition of the objectives of the promotion policy for agricultural products is a necessary first step and cannot be detached from a net increase in the budget allocated to this area. We need to focus on the development of short supply chains, for the economic revitalisation and social enhancement of rural life and to show schoolchildren through educational initiatives how food is produced and what life is like in rural areas. Furthermore, the European Union must try to export a model of sustainable agriculture, as well as its products. We just have to implement these fine sentiments."@en1
