Florin Barbu, the Minister of Agriculture, emphasized the importance of Romanian chicken, mentioning that it is used in all schools in Great Britain due to its superior quality, being raised with 90% corn and having a clean label.
Romania is a net exporter of chicken meat in the European Union and in Great Britain. Barbu criticized the Mercosur agreement, explaining that imports of chicken meat from this area could affect local production, considering that Romania primarily exports whole chickens and not just breasts.
He brought up previous examples of trade agreements that led to the closure of Romanian farms, highlighting the need for guarantees to protect the Romanian poultry sector. Barbu warned that free trade without adequate regulations can lead to dumping and the destruction of domestic production.
