MASAF. Lollobrigida: fruitful dialogue with Spanish minister Planas

The Minister of Agriculture, Food Sovereignty and Forestry, Francesco Lollobrigida, met his counterpart from the Kingdom of Spain, Luis Planas, yesterday at Masaf. "A fruitful dialogue, from which a significant sharing of intent emerged on the main agri-food and fisheries dossiers", says Minister Lollobrigida.

“I underlined the importance of working together on sustainability issues and on opening up to emerging foreign markets. At the same time, we have been thinking about the possibility of implementing joint research initiatives to deal with drought. Today's meeting was also an opportunity to talk about selective fishing and to recall Italy's contrary position on synthetic foods”, continues Lollobrigida.

“We will also evaluate the possibility of signing an agreement between the MASAF Central Inspectorate for the protection of quality and fraud repression of agro-food products and the homologous Spanish agency, in order to standardize controls on Italian and Iberian agri-food products. Indeed, the goal is to safeguard those excellences that represent added value for our economies but are put at risk by unfair commercial practices”, concludes the Minister of Agriculture, Food Sovereignty and Forestry, Francesco Lollobrigida.
