In a letter last January 10 in Bruno Le Maire, Minister of Agriculture, the new president of the FNSEA, Xavier Beulin, does not hide his disappointment at the findings of the Monitor prices and margins on beef.
The union stresses that "the agricultural profession expected much of the work initiated on the beef in a context where farmers are going through a crisis without precedent . Disappointment even greater than the method used was made in defiance of the partners, " confusing speed and precipitation " by presenting a formal report is preliminary, "we regret communication early report [...] even before the Observatory of Prices and Margins has been convened to discuss the initial findings .
also FNSEA questions the relevance of the results of the Observatory which simply measure an aggregate margin, that is to say that industry and distribution together, without distinguishing between what falls under each link in the chain.
FNSEA as Philippe Chalmin recognize there is a job "structural" to the beef industry to improve its competitiveness and its organization, " so that farmers do not remain a simple adjustment variable . But Xavier continues Beulin " efforts to be undertaken should not overshadow the debate about the costs and distortions of competition arising from social, environmental and health, or on the ongoing negotiations at the WTO or Mercosur, which may break definitely our breeding French .
" FNSEA is committed to the accessibility of all the French in a safe, healthy and quality, but it has a price, a fair price that it is time to find a national consensus "concludes in his letter the President of the FNSEA.
