lpv:translated text	". While the EU is heavily reliant on certain suppliers of plant proteins, the Commission proposes continuing to depend on imports, prioritising a market opportunity over rationalising its various policies. In doing so, it ignores the difficulty that farmers have already experienced in this type of situation and deprives the agriculture sector of new prospects. The development of protein-rich oil plants would comply with the need to develop a diversified, sustainable agriculture sector, in response to consumer demand for traced products and consumer rejection of GMOs. It would also provide farmers with new opportunities through the development of non-food prospects such as biofuels. Lastly, these crops have an essential role to play at an agronomic and environmental level. We must not sell this agricultural sector short. Let us provide it instead with the means to realise its ambitions by establishing conditions for profitability comparable to those of cereals, by favouring the diversity of species, and more particularly those not affected by the Blair House agreement. These efforts will be in vain, however, if our negotiators do not commit themselves to defending our agricultural production with conviction on the international scene."@en1
