European Union (EU) agricultural policy has been developed
in the pursuit of laudable goals such as a competitive
economy and regulatory harmony across the union. However,
what has emerged is a fragmented, contradictory,
and unworkable legislative framework that threatens
economic disaster. In this review, we present case studies
highlighting differences in the regulations applied to
foods grown in EU countries and identical imported products,
which show that the EU is undermining its own
competitiveness in the agricultural sector, damaging
both the EU and its humanitarian activities in the developing
world. We recommend the adoption of rational,
science-based principles for the harmonization of agricultural
policies to prevent economic decline and lower
standards of living across the continent. |
