In continuation of the two trade union actions of October 8 and 22, the FNSEA and Young Farmers mobilize again on November 27. If our determination has allowed us to move a few lines, we still deplore the lack of concrete and tangible measures in favor of agricultural holdings: almost 20% of farmers fail to live their trade. First speech of the President of the Republic in Mayotte to provide support to farmers, hardening of the tone face of denigration and violence with the establishment of the Demeter cell, maintaining the budget of the Chambers of Agriculture: the signals of a Awareness of agricultural malaise has increased in recent weeks. They can not, however, satisfy us. If there is a shudder, these advances do not find concrete materialization in the farms. This is a decisive issue for farmers.-----------------------------------------------------  We are always caught between a regulation that does not allow competitiveness and a distribution of value that does not guarantee fair remuneration. This situation is no longer tenable. In default of having more price, because the economic actors do not play sufficiently the game of the States General of the food, new charges fall on the exploitations.-------------------------  Instead of investing its energy to create new distortions (international trade agreements, no-treatment zone, new taxes), the State should work to enforce the EGalim law to truly secure the income of farmers. That is why, on November 27, our networks will mobilize to ask the distributors and industrialists to allow the return to a decent income for the farmers, and the State to transform its promises into concrete actions: no additional distortions. All must live up to their commitments. The forms of actions will vary according to territories and productions. All information will be communicated soon. Source : FNSEA
