lpv:translated text	". I wish to thank the rapporteur, Ms Zimmer, for an important and excellent report. Nevertheless, I would further underline the role of women as guarantors of food security, because, without these women, many of whom are often smallholder farmers, food security in the developing countries would be in a much worse shape than it is today. The development of women’s rural businesses faces numerous problems. Women benefit from training, new technologies and help in developing their businesses less frequently than men. Women’s rights to collect debts and own property are not as strong as those of men. The extent to which women participate in decision-making at the local and national level is limited. Although women produce most of the food in developing countries, they own only a fraction of the land. The EU must make much greater use of development assistance for agriculture, not forgetting equality. Agriculture is the largest employer and an effective way to reduce poverty."@en1
