Sp. Libanos in the Council of 27 Ministers of Agriculture: Time for immediate measures to support producers against price increases

The Minister of Rural Development and Food, Mr. Spilios Libanos, Council of Ministers of Agriculture and Fisheries and Commissioners.

After the meeting, Mr. Libanos stated:

“I have raised with the Council of Ministers and the Commissioners, representatives of the European Commission, the burning issue of the continuing rapid rise in energy, feed and fertilizer prices.

It is time for the EU to create a special framework to support and strengthen our farmers and stockbreeders, Greeks and Europeans, who see their production costs soar, creating huge problems of sustainability and in some cases even survival for Greek producers.

We also supported the French Presidency’s priorities for a strong and sovereign Europe of recovery, development, security and solidarity.

“A Europe that supports our producers, puts rural development at the heart of the European economy, protects regulations and ensures a level playing field for our products compared to imports from third countries.”
