Amendment: Text proposed by the Commission and Amendment
Text proposed by the CommissionAmendment
(15) Certain Member States have decided that all deliveries of agricultural products in their territory are to be covered by written contracts between the parties. Where the Member States do not make use of this possibility, farmers, producer organisations or associations of producer organisations can request the use of written contracts. However, due to the weaker bargaining position of farmers and the fear of commercial retaliation by purchasers, it can be difficult for farmers and their associations to make such a request. To increase trust, transparency, and efficiency within the supply chain and to enable all farmers, producer organisations and associations of producer organisations to benefit from the use of written contracts, deliveries of agricultural products in the Union by a farmer, a producer organisation or an association of producer organisations to a processor, distributor or retailer should be covered by a written contract.(15) Certain Member States have decided that all deliveries of agricultural products in their territory are to be covered by written contracts between the parties.

The content of those written contracts should also be improved, to integrate relevant factors including production cost and market conditions, in order that farmers consistently receive a price covering their production costs.
