The technical director of Proexport, Abelardo Hernández, attended, yesterday, at the presentation in the European Parliament of the "COM's White Paper on Fruit and Vegetables". This publication has been produced by AREFLH (Association of European Fruit and Vegetable Regions), with the collaboration of PROEXPORT and other associations of European producer organizations, with the aim of highlighting the importance of the CMO in fruit and vegetables; in modernization, competitiveness and profitability for agricultural producers.
With this work, AREFLH analyzes the strengths and weaknesses of the European horticulture sector in a document highlighting the positive impact of the CMO since its creation in 1997.
The event has given the opportunity to some regions and producer organizations, members of AREFLH, to share their experiences of the implementation of the operational programs.
From the AREFLH, producers: "We contend that the subsidies granted through producer organizations contribute decisively to the objectives of the CMO and respond to the challenges of globalization and the sustainability of the agricultural production system," said Hernández at the end of the meeting.
