Amendment 85 #
Proposal for a regulation
Recital 18
(18) European Union policy to assist local production in the outermost regions has involved a multitude of products and measures for their production, marketing or processing. These measures have proved effective and ensured that agriculture continues and develops. The EU should continue to support these lines of production, which are a key element to ensure the environmental, social and economic equilibrium of the outermost regions. Experience has shown that, as in the case of rural development policy, a closer partnership with local authorities can help to address the particular issues affecting the regions concerned in a more targeted way. Support to promote local production therefore needs to continue by means of the POSEI programmes, structural funding and payments from the agricultural funds (the European Agricultural Guarantee Fund and the European Agricultural Fund for Rural Development).
