From Cork 2.0 Declaration to concrete actions (own-initiative opinion)

Opinion
Antagna on 05/07/2017
Dokumentreferens: 
NAT/709-EESC-2017
Rapporteur: 
Sofia BJÖRNSSON (Sweden)

Rural development is a horizontal issue that affects practically all policy areas.

The EESC welcomes the Cork 2.0 Declaration that offers strong ongoing support for a rural policy at EU level. The EESC sees itself as a natural partner when it comes to implementing the declaration, and requests that the Commission continue producing progress reports on said implementation.

Rural regions in the EU are not homogeneous and situations vary between and within Member States. These differences mean there is a need for focus and a strategic approach when using available EU funds. This must be based most importantly on initiatives from those living in rural areas.

Promoting a fairer agro-food supply chain

Opinion
Antagna on 19/10/2016
Dokumentreferens: 
NAT/680-EESC-2016-01870-00-00-ac-tra
Referral: 
COM(2016) 32 final
Rapporteur: 
Peter SCHMIDT (Workers - GR II / Germany)

Over recent years, there has been a shift in bargaining power in the food supply chain, mostly to the advantage of the retail sector and some transnational companies and to the detriment of suppliers, in particular primary producers. The concentration of bargaining power has led to the abuse of positions of dominance causing weaker operators to become increasingly vulnerable to Unfair Trading Practices (UTPs). The opinion takes stock of the impact of UTPs, stresses the difficult position of the most vulnerable actors along the chain and calls for action at EU level to stop UTPs and promote a fairer food supply chain.
