Question 13672 — agri-food

Summary

Ms. Claire O'Petit draws the attention of the Minister of Agriculture and Food to France's necessary protein sovereignty. Indeed, given the very strong expected increase in global demand for plant proteins for animal and human consumption, it is very likely that tensions will appear in this sector. Currently, France still imports 40% of its vegetable protein needs and the Union European 65%. Likewise, with regard to human consumption of vegetable proteins, France remains in deficit: for example, 50% of lentils consumed in France are imported. In addition to lentils, France can, for example, develop local cultivation of rapeseed, sunflowers and peas. For this, just like soya across the Atlantic, significant research efforts to improve the competitiveness of these products must be undertaken. She therefore asks him if there are plans, in compliance with European commitments, to initiate a government action plan in favor of plant proteins.
