Members of the AGRI Committee hear from Commissioner for Agriculture Janusz Wojciechowski how the situation on the EU agricultural markets has been developing following the invasion of Russia to Ukraine. It is expected that the war in Ukraine will have a significant impact on the European agricultural markets due to long-term cuts in imports. Russia and Ukraine account for over 30% of world trade in wheat, 32% for barley, 17% for corn and over 50% for sunflower oils, seeds and meals.

Il Parlamento ha rinnovato il proprio appello per un accesso senza barriere al materiale di selezione. Il PE desidera che gli agricoltori in tutta Europa abbiano la possibilità di innovare per trovare soluzioni alla crisi del clima e alle fitopatie di nuova comparsa. Alle ricche multinazionali non deve essere consentito di imporre brevetti sulla vita naturale, che causano monopoli e l'aumento dei prezzi degli alimenti.

Nessun brevetto su vegetali e semi ottenuti con processi naturali

To boost the use of organic and more environment-friendly fertilisers by European farmers, MEPs vote on revised internal market access rules, which would also help to reduce the dependence on imported phosphates, during the EP plenary session (23-26 October) in Strasbourg.

Mihai ŢURCANU (EPP, RO), Rapporteur, expresses himself after the vote.
