Motion for a resolution
Paragraph 3 a (new)
Paragraph 3 a (new)
3a. Considers that the criteria for granting support (grants, subsidised loans, etc.) to young farmers should be reviewed in order to be able to provide support for all young people setting up in farming, because some are currently unable to take advantage of the support available when doing so; considers, furthermore, that it should be made easier for young people from non-farming backgrounds, who often experience less favourable setting-up conditions, to become farmers; considers, lastly, that phased setting-up arrangements should be promoted in order to make it less difficult to take over holdings;
Amendment 52 #
Motion for a resolution
Paragraph 3 b (new)
Paragraph 3 b (new)
3b. Calls on the Commission to conduct a study into the effect that production rights, single-payment rights and premium rights have on the setting up of young farmers, because all such instruments are a frequent cause of conflict between generations, making it more difficult for young people wishing to set up in farming to gain access to those rights themselves; takes the view that the Commission should draw the necessary conclusions as regards management of the CAP, with a view to placing young people in a better position to set up in farming;
Amendment 60 #
Motion for a resolution
Paragraph 4 a (new)
Paragraph 4 a (new)
4a. Takes the view that the dominant model in today's farming, which has resulted in the concentration of production in the hands of undertakings with increasingly extensive land holdings and farming activities, making it increasingly difficult for new generations of farmers to take over such holdings, needs to be rethought; considers that farming models that are more sustainable and less concentrated and, above all, generate lower running costs should now be promoted; points out that such models, based on a change in production methods, would make it easier for people to become farmers and would make a more effective contribution to job creation;
