Question No 44 by Zbigniew Krzysztof Kuzmiuk 
Subject: Sugar market reform
The sugar market reform adopted by the Commission and Council provides among other things for sugar producers to receive compensation amounting to EUR 730 for each tonne of quota renounced. In Poland, where production quotas are allocated to sugar factories and not to farmers who grow sugar beet, this could lead to the reduction of sugar production, forcing farmers to stop growing sugar beet.
What form of support will farmers in Poland receive when they are forced to stop growing sugar beet?
