Vendar se zdi, da pošten dohodek kmetov za razliko od večje produktivnosti in svetovne konkurenčnosti evropske živilske industrije nima zelo pomembnega mesta na programu Evropske komisije.
But, compared to goals like increased productivity and global competitiveness of the European food industry, it seems that a fair income for farmers is not very high on the European Commission's agenda.
Te težave so tesno povezane s povečano koncentracijo v sektorjih predelovalne industrije, trgovine na debelo in trgovine na drobno ter z verigami supermarketov, rastjo njihove tržne moči in različnimi praksami zlorabe moči vodilnega kupca v verigi preskrbe s hrano.
These problems seem to be closely linked to increased concentration in the sectors of processing industries, wholesalers, retailers, and supermarket chains, their growing market power and various practices of abuse of dominant buyer power in the food chain.
Komisija poleg tega opozarja na številne nepoštene prakse pri sklepanju pogodb, omejen dostop do trga in neupravičene pristojbine, ki jih morajo proizvajalci plačati za uvrstitev živilskih proizvodov v ponudbo v prodaji na drobno.
The Commission furthermore points at a number of unfair practices in contracting, restricted market access and undue fees imposed on producers for listing of food products in the retailing sector.
Poleg tega sporočilo sproža vprašanje, zakaj so kmetje v skoraj vseh sektorjih žrtve zniževanja cen na kmetiji, medtem ko potrošniki pri nakupu končnih izdelkov plačujejo enake ali višje cene.
Furthermore, the communication raises the question why farmers are suffering from decreasing farm gate prices in almost all sectors while consumers are facing constant or increasing prices for the end products they buy.
V tem sektorju pa je težko dobiti podatke o dobičku.
Information of profit margins in the sector is however difficult to obtain.
Kot odziv na te težave Komisija predlaga večjo preglednost cen v celotni verigi preskrbe s hrano, da bi povečali konkurenco in preprečili nestanovitnost cen, poleg tega pa tudi boljši pretok informacij med partnerji na trgu o ponudbi in povpraševanju, cenah in sklepanju pogodb.
As a response to these problems, the Commission suggests better price transparency throughout the food chain in order to increase competition and so to combat price volatility and a better flow of information between the market partners on supply and demand, prices, and contracting.
Vendar pa je v državah članicah ali na ravni EU trenutno na voljo zelo malo podatkov o oblikovanju cen na ravni predelave, prodaje in trženja.
However, very few data on price building at the level of processing, trade and marketing are currently available in the Member States and at EU level.
V tem poročilu so navedeni predlogi, zbrani na podlagi delovnega dokumenta, ki ga je pripravil poročevalec in povabil vse zainteresirane strani, naj izrazijo svoje mnenje o glavnih vprašanjih za boljše delovanje verige preskrbe s hrano in pošten dohodek za kmete.
This report includes proposals which have been gathered based on a working document which your rapporteur prepared in order to invite all interested stakeholders to express their views on key questions for a better functioning of the food chain and fair incomes for farmers.
Osnutek resolucije povzema veliko teh predlogov z namenom poglobiti premislek o možnih rešitvah ter s pozivom Komisiji in Svetu, naj ukrepata.
The draft resolution has taken many of these proposals up in order to deepen the reflection on possible solutions and to call upon the Commission and the Council to take urgent action.
Komisija predlaga ukrepe za povečanje preglednosti cen v živilskem sektorju.
The Commission suggests measures to increase price transparency in the food sector.
Mednje sodi predvsem boljša preglednost trgov izvedenih finančnih instrumentov za osnovne kmetijske proizvode, kar bi omogočilo nadzor nad pretiranimi špekulacijami in nestanovitnostjo cen za osnovne kmetijske proizvode.
These include mainly better transparency of agricultural commodity derivatives markets in order to be able to control excessive speculation and price volatility for agricultural commodities.
Poleg tega Komisija predlaga evropski instrument za spremljanje cen hrane in lahko dostopne storitve za primerjavo maloprodajnih cen hrane.
Furthermore, the Commission suggests a European food prices monitoring tool and easily accessible food retail price comparison services.
Komisija predlaga ukrepe za boljšo konkurenco v evropski verigi preskrbe s hrano,
The Commission suggests measures to improve competition within the European food chain
v glavnem s krepitvijo večje vključenosti živilske industrije v notranji trg ter z odpravo omejitev o teritorialni dobavi, ki so v nasprotju z načeli notranjega trga.
mainly by enhancing further integration of the food industry within the internal market and to remove territorial supply constraints which contradict Internal Market principles.
Komisija tudi pregleduje izbrane okoljske standarde in sisteme označevanja izvora, ki lahko ovirajo čezmejno trgovino, in predlaga ustavitev razvoja sistemov za označevanje nacionalnega in regionalnega izvora, ki naj jih v politiki kakovosti nadomesti nov okvir geografskih oznak, tržnih standardov in sistemov certificiranja.
The Commission also reviews selected environmental standards and origin labelling schemes that may impede cross-border trade and suggests stopping the development of national and regional origin labelling schemes to be replaced by a new framework for geographical indications, marketing standards and certification schemes in its quality policy.
Vendar poročevalec obžaluje, da ti predlogi ne upoštevajo velike raznovrstnosti ozemeljske strukture, velikosti, ravni specializacije, zaposlitvenih zmogljivosti in dostopa do javne podpore za različna mala, srednja in velika podjetja v verigi preskrbe s hrano: prav tako ni upoštevan neenakopraven pogajalski položaj kmetov v primerjavi s predelovalci ter trgovci na debelo in drobno, ki je privedel do izkoriščevalskih odkupnih praks in protikonkurenčnega ravnanja, pa tudi ne pomanjkanje želje in učinkovitosti nacionalnih in evropskih organov za konkurenco, da bi odpravili ta nesorazmerja in ustrezno ukrepali in nenehne „cenovne vojne“ med verigami veleblagovnic v skoraj vseh državah članicah .
However, your rapporteur deplores that these proposals do not take into account the high diversity in territorial structure, size, level of specialization, employment capacities, and access to public support of the various small, medium and large enterprises involved in the food chain; the extremely unequal bargaining power of farmers, as opposed to processors, wholesalers, and retailers which has led to abusive buyer practices and anti-competitive behaviour ;the low ambition and performance of national and European competition authorities to address these asymmetries and to take adequate measures; and the ongoing "price war" in almost all member states between supermarket chains.
Prestrukturiranje kmetijstva in veriga preskrbe s hrano
Restructuring of agriculture and the food chain
Komisija predlaga ukrepe za prestrukturiranje kmetijskega sektorja in verig preskrbe s hrano ter spodbujanje ustanavljanja organizacij kmetijskih proizvajalcev.
The Commission suggests measures for restructuring the agricultural sector and food chains and to encourage the creation of agricultural producer organisations.
Komisija kot primer predlaga osredotočenje na mlečni sektor, pri čemer pa ne upošteva precejšnjega števila zelo predelanih živilskih izdelkov, ki so sestavni del potrošnje večine gospodinjstev.
As an example the Commission suggests to focus on the milk sector, ignoring a substantial number of highly processed food products which compose most of the households' consumption.
Ravno tako predvideva ustanovitev skupine na visoki ravni za večjo konkurenčnost agroživilskega sektorja, zlasti malih in srednjih podjetij, ter za spodbujanje inovacij in izvoza v sektorju.
It also envisages creating a new High Level Group aiming to improve the competitiveness of the agro-food sector, notably of SMEs, and to foster innovation and exports in the sector.
Vendar predlogi ne upoštevajo velike raznolikosti kmetijskih struktur in velikosti kmetijskih gospodarstev ter njihovih različnih povezav z lokalnimi, regionalnimi, nacionalnimi ali mednarodnimi trgi, velike raznolikosti predelovalne industrije in različnih ravni konkurenčnosti glede na trge in dobavne verige, v katere so vključene; raznolikosti neodvisnih lokalnih trgovcev na drobno, trgov, lokalnih verig preskrbe s hrano in delno samooskrbnih sistemov preskrbe s hrano, ki niso odvisni od dogajanja na trgu, velike odvisnosti od zunanjih in pogosto uvoženih surovin ter velike ranljivosti intenzivnih proizvajalcev agroživilstva v verigi preskrbe s hrano, ki veljajo za najbolj konkurenčne na svetovnem trgu, hitrega izginjanja malih in srednjih podjetij, trgovcev na drobno in trgovin, posebno na podeželskih območjih z omejenimi možnostmi ter neskladja med evropskimi predpisi o konkurenci in namero, ki jo je izrazila Komisija, o povečanju pogajalske moči organizacij proizvajalcev, kar bi jim omogočalo doseganje poštene cene za njihovo proizvodnjo.
However, these proposals do not take into account the high diversity of agricultural structures and size of holdings and their respective links to local, regional, national or international markets; the high diversity of processing industries and the different levels of competitiveness in relation to the markets and supply chains they are embedded in; the diversity of independent local retailers, markets, local food chains and semi-subsistence food supply systems which do not depend on market development; the high dependence on external and often imported inputs and the vulnerability of intensive agro-industrial producers in the food chain which are considered to be the most competitive on the world market ; the rapid disappearance of small and medium sized enterprises, retailers and shops, especially in disadvantaged rural areas; and the conflict between European competition rules and the intention expressed by the Commission to improve producers organisations' bargaining power so as to allow them to achieve a fair price for their production.
Komisija meni, da je treba ukrepati in odpraviti nepoštene pogodbene prakse med poslovnimi akterji v celotni verigi preskrbe s hrano.
The Commission considers that action is needed to eliminate unfair contractual practices between business actors all along the food supply chain.
Komisija opozarja na prakse, kot so pozna plačila in zamude pri njih, enostransko spreminjanje pogodb, vnaprejšnja plačila kot vstopne pristojbine za supermarkete in še mnoge druge.
It highlights practices like late and delayed payments, unilateral changes in contracts, upfront payments as entry fees to supermarkets and many more.
Vendar pa se predlagani ukrepi proti tem praksam omejujejo na izmenjavo dobre prakse, kampanje za ozaveščanje in pripravo neobveznih standardnih pogodb.
However, proposals for measures against these practices are limited to exchange of good practices, awareness raising campaigns and preparation of voluntary standard contracts.
Predlogi med drugim ne vključujejo ukrepov proti praksam vsiljevanja nizkih cen na kmetijah z naročili velikih količin, „negativnim maržam“ (ekskluzivnim cenam za enega kupca), ukrepov, s katerimi bi določili najvišje pristojbine za uvrstitev v ponudbo, in ukrepov proti grožnjam črtanja iz ponudbe, ukrepov proti zaplembi zalog, neupravičenim pristojbinam za pakiranje, pristojbinam za trženje, poprodajnim rabatom in plačilom z učinkom za nazaj, ukrepov proti neupravičenim zamudam pri plačilih, ki se pojavljajo v skoraj vseh maloprodajnih verigah, in proti dodatnim prispevkom k pristojbinam za stroške trženja, ki jih proizvajalci zahtevajo za kritje stroškov nedelovanja trga, pa tudi ne ukrepov za izboljšanje znanja in izkušenj proizvajalcev in potrošnikov o oblikovanju cen v celotni verigi preskrbe s hrano in ukrepov za nadzor koncentracije združevalcev proizvodov in odkupovalcev na evropski ravni.
The proposals furthermore do not include measures against practices which impose low farm gate prices through high volume requirements, "minus-margins" (exclusive prices for one buyer) ; measures which fix maximum listing fees and measures against threats of delisting; measures against foreclosure of supplies, undue fees for packaging, marketing fees, after-sale rebates and retro-active payments; measures against undue delay in payments, as practiced in almost all retailer chains and against extra contribution to marketing costs fees to cover expenses for market failures; or measures to improve know-how of producers and consumers on price building across the food chain and measures to control concentration of bundlers and buying desks at European level.
Nadaljnja prodaja z izgubo
Resale at loss
Med protikonkurenčnimi praksami Komisija ni izrecno omenila nadaljnje prodaje z izgubo, ki je v Evropi zelo razširjena.
Under anti-competitive practices, the Commission has not specifically mentioned resale at loss practices which are widely spread in Europe.
Vendar pa Komisija opozarja na veliko število primerov kartelnega združevanja in vzdrževanja cen za nadaljnjo prodajo, sporazumov o skupni komercializaciji in skupni nabavi (nabavne združbe), dogovorov o vezani in paketni prodaji ter naraščajoče uporabe trgovinskih blagovnih znamk.
The Commission points however at a significant number of cartels and resale price maintenance cases; joint commercialization and joint purchasing agreements (buying alliances); tying and bundling arrangements; and an increasing use of private labels.
Poleg tega bi lahko s pomočjo evropskega observatorija za kmetijske cene in rezerve opredelili najnižjo ceno za kritje proizvodnih stroškov in kmetom zagotovili pošten dohodek.
Moreover, the work of the European Farm Prices and Margins Observatory could allow for the definition of a bottom price covering costs of production and guaranteeing a faire income to farmers.
Taka cena bi bila referenca za pogajanja med organizacijami proizvajalcev in sektorji v nadaljevanju verige preskrbe s hrano, s čimer bi prepovedali, da bi kmetje prodajali z izgubo.
Such price would serve as a reference during negotiations between producers' organisations and food chain's downstream sectors in order to forbid sale at loss by farmers.
Izboljšanje kakovosti hrane in trajnostni prehranski sistemi
Improvement of food quality and sustainable food systems
Za boljše delovanje verig preskrbe s hrano bi morali vključiti tudi diferenciacijo higienskih predpisov in njihovo revizijo, decentralizacijo in poenostavitev sistemov za certificiranje in nadzor, spodbujanje neposrednih odnosov med proizvajalcem in potrošnikom in kratkih verig preskrbe s hrano, katerih prednosti za trajnost so potrdili raziskovalni projekti EK ter sodelovanje proizvajalcev in potrošnikov pri pripravi meril za kakovost in pravično trgovino.
Improvements of the functioning of food chains should include a differentiation and revision of hygiene rules; decentralizing and simplifying certification and control systems; promotion of direct producer-consumer-relations and short food supply chains, whose sustainability benefits have been documented by EC research projects; and involvement of producers and consumers in the elaboration of quality and fair trade criteria;
Samooskrba, javne prehranske verige, preskrba s pripravljeno hrano in pijačo in izgube hrane
Self supply, public food chains, catering and food waste
Sporočilo ne upošteva naslednjih praks:
The communication does not take into account the following practices:
– verig preskrbe s hrano, ki niso ali so le delno vključene v tržno gospodarstvo, npr. samooskrbna ali delno samooskrbna proizvodnja, ki v številnih državah članicah še vedno predstavlja pomemben del preskrbe s hrano, zlasti pri sadju in zelenjavi;
- food chains which are not or only partially integrated into the market economy, e.g. -subsistence or semi-subsistence production, which still provides an important part of food supply in many member states, especially in the fruit and vegetable sector;
– javne in zasebne preskrbe s pripravljeno hrano in pijačo (vključno z menzami in restavracijami), ki ima svoje posebne zahteve, strukture cen in konkurenčna pravila;
- public and private catering (including canteens and restaurants), which have their own specific demands, price structures and rules of competition;
– meril okoljske trajnosti pri nabavi hrane (preskrba s pripravljeno hrano in pijačo) kot sredstva za boljšo kakovost hrane in lokalni gospodarski razvoj ob hkratnem zmanjševanju „prehranskih kilometrov“ in agrokemične odvisnosti;
- environmental sustainability criteria for food procurement practices (catering services) as a means to enhance food quality and local economic development, while also reducing ‘food miles’ and agrichemical dependence;
– izredno visokih izgub hrane v verigi preskrbe s hrano, ki v večini držav članic znašajo do 30 odstotkov proizvedene hrane, ki gre na trg;
- extremely high losses of food throughout the food chain, which in most member states comprise up to 30% of produced and marketed food.
– pomena evropskega programa pomoči v hrani na verigo preskrbe s hrano, ki nahrani 43 milijonov revnih v Evropi in ki ga je treba spremeniti, da bi bolje povezali lokalne proizvajalce in porabnike živil.
- the importance of the European Food Aid Program on the food supply chain which feeds 43 million poor people in Europe and which needs to be revised in terms of better linking of local producers and consumers of food.
Na koncu poročevalec poziva k ustreznim ukrepom proti špekulaciji s prehrambenimi proizvodi.
Finally, your rapporteur calls for adequate measures against speculation on food commodities .
2. obžaluje, da ni povezave med visokimi potrošniškimi cenami in tistimi, ki se plačujejo evropskim kmetom, ter poudarja, da je treba doseči pravičnejšo porazdelitev dodane vrednosti po posameznih členih verige, od trgov proizvodnih dejavnikov, ki so v verigi pred kmeti, do končnih potrošnikov na koncu verige;
Regrets the failure to establish a correlation between high consumer prices and the prices paid to European farmers, and stresses the need to achieve a fairer distribution of value added along the various links of the chain, from the primary input markets which precede farmers in the chain, to the final consumers at the end of the chain;
6. poziva Komisijo, naj v vseh državah članicah preuči posledice, kadar se na trgu v večji meri uveljavi posamezen maloprodajni subjekt; poziva Komisijo, naj razmisli o ustrezni gornji meji za uveljavitev na trgu;
Urges the Commission to examine the consequences in all Member States of significant market penetration by a single retail entity; urges the Commission to consider placing an appropriate upper limit on market penetration;
9. obsoja manipuliranje s cenami in kartelizacijo v velikih distribucijskih sektorjih in poziva k nujnim ukrepom, da se takšno ravnanje konča, v procesu oblikovanja cen za živilske proizvode pa doseže preglednost za končnega potrošnika;
Denounces price manipulation and cartelisation by large-scale distribution sectors and calls for urgent measures to end these practices and achieve transparency in the price formation process for food products from the viewpoint of the end-consumer;
11. poudarja, da je treba spodbuditi večjo dodano vrednost evropske agroživilske proizvodnje in začeti informacijske kampanje za potrošnike o prizadevanjih kmetov in kmetijske panoge za okolje, varnost hrane in dobro počutje živali;
Highlights the need to promote an increase in the added value of European agri-food production and launch information campaigns for consumers on the efforts made by farmers and the industry in relation to the environment, food safety and animal welfare;
13. meni, da je treba podpreti večjo vključenost posameznih členov verige v medpanožne organizacije, izdelati kodekse dobre prakse in prostovoljne standardne pogodbe z možnostjo, da države članice v nekaterih primerih, zlasti pri pokvarljivem blagu, zahtevajo njihovo obvezno izpolnitev;
Considers it necessary to promote the closer integration of the various links of the chain in the context of interprofessional organisations and to draw up codes of good practice and voluntary standard contracts, with the possibility, in certain cases and especially for perishable goods, for Member States to demand that they become binding;
17. meni, da je bistveno izboljšati organizacijo verige preskrbe s hrano in jo še bolj racionalizirati, da bi zmanjšali okoljski vpliv prevoza hrane (prehrambeni kilometri) in spodbujali trženje lokalnih živil.
Considers it essential to improve the organisation of and further rationalise the food-supply chain in order to reduce the environmental impact of food-transportation (food miles) and promote the marketing of local foodstuffs.
