Paragraph 8 a (new)
8a. Notes that farmers produce the food that the rest of our populations need and that in the majority of Member States, farmers’ incomes are below average, which negatively affects their living standards and the living standards of their families and reduces the appeal of this profession to young people; given that farmers in their later stage in life live on the breadline because their below average income during their working years directly affects how much they are able to save for retirement, encourages Member States to introduce a minimum national pension for farmers higher than the poverty threshold.
