The European Milk Board asbl (EMB) welcomes the fact that the Commission is tabling reforms at this juncture, thus recognising that we need a better market framework at EU level - a key demand of producer associations like the EMB for years now. However, we need further-reaching measures to bring fundamental, real improvements to the dairy and agricultural sector.

What they argued
The European Milk Board (EMB) and its member organisations welcome the revision of Directive (EU) 2019/633 on unfair trading practices (UTPs) in the agricultural and food supply chain. From the perspective of dairy producers across Europe, the current rules are an important first step, but they remain insufficient to ensure fair market conditions and viable farm incomes. 1.
Unfair trade practices have been addressed by this regulation, but so far it does not give a sufficient response to one of the main reasons why farmers are affected by unfair trading conditions and practices: Producers' position in the market is not strong enough - the market is working against them. Agricultural producers are constantly paid prices that are far below the cost of production.
The EU Commission tabled proposals on Unfair trading practices (UTP) at the end of 2024. However, they do not change the substance of the UTP Directive but refer to cooperation between Member States when it comes to cross-border unfair activities. It is, of course, important for Member State authorities to be well-placed to investigate and issue sanctions in cases of unfair trading practices.
