Addressing the conference in Val de Loire the Thurles TD said recent geopolitical events have driven home the fact that food security for the people of Europe must remain high on the agenda for all legislators across all EU Member States.
He said the unjustifiable and horrifying war in Ukraine has proven that our food security is not guaranteed.
Jackie Cahill also called for the European Union to go back to basics with CAP.
