Question 2423 — agri-food

Summary

Ms. Séverine Gipson draws the attention of the Minister of Agriculture and Food to the growing concern of consumers and professionals regarding the tensions present on the French butter market. Indeed, faced with an increase in the price of butter, manufacturers admit to rationing by supermarkets which refuse to pass on increases in the manufacturing costs of butter-based products to their customers. There France is facing an unprecedented situation on the dairy products market with two combined phenomena which have created a situation of tension in butter availability in recent weeks: a drop in milk collection, which is usual from June to September, associated with a sharp increase in global consumption of French butter (particularly from the United States and China). So, she wants to know what are the measures it intends to take regarding this situation directly impacting the purchasing power of the French and the place it wishes to occupy in negotiations between manufacturers and distributors.
