Obligation of written agreements between farmers and consumers of their products. What other proposesKE?

Obowiązek pisemnych umów pomiędzy rolnikami a odbiorcami ich produktów. Co jeszcze proponuje KE?

Thanks to sequential reforms the EU Common Agricultural Policy has moved in the direction of income and market orientation, which means free shaping prices of agricultural products. These reforms were mainly a response to internal challenges, surpluses and crises. Most challenges facing the agricultural sector are caused however by factors external to agriculture and requiring a broader political response, which the European Commission has also noted. 

ThePR provides already some measures to improve the position of farmers in the food supply chain. In KE’s view, however, the pressure on income from agricultural activities will remain, because farmers face increasing risks, increasing costs of inputs and

more rigorous production requirements.
