lpv:translated text	"Direct payments are one of the most important support mechanisms implemented as part of the common agricultural policy, which itself takes up a significant portion of the EU budget. We should, therefore, ensure that these funds are used appropriately. The aim of modulation is to ensure that the agricultural sector is subsidised in a more effective manner. By reducing direct payments, more funds will be allocated to the support provided under the second pillar, making it possible to increase the number of rural development programmes. I support the adjustment to a lower modulation rate in 10 new Member States, as it will lead to a gradual alignment of these payments, which is key to ensuring equal conditions of competition in the EU’s agricultural market. Direct payments help farmers, but they also benefit consumers. Thanks to direct payments, food prices are not only more stable, they are now, most importantly, lower. Payments should be made to farmers and not to landowners, since that is the way to ensure that best use is made of these payments. It is essential to determine the level of the crisis reserve for the years 2014-2020, intended to protect the food sector. In the coming years, financial discipline will be crucial, but it should also be stressed that protection of the food sector is a priority for the Union’s policy. I therefore believe that the planned reserve should at least be maintained at its current level."@en1
