Imports from Cambodia, Myanmar, India, and Thailand have placed sustained pressure on EU producers, says Copa-Cogeca
Copa-Cogeca , an influential lobby group representing the European Union (EU) agricultural sector, has asked the EU to impose safeguard mechanisms to rescue rice farmers and ensure their survival.
In a statement issued on Thursday, the group said the EU granted preferential access for rice from other countries into its domestic market and it would destabilise the EU market.
“...imports from Cambodia, Myanmar, India, and Thailand have placed sustained pressure on EU producers, threatening a sector that is essential for rural employment, environmental stewardship, and the production of high-quality, sustainable food.
