34. Notes that Rimosso: under the Agreement almost all remaining tariffs will be removed; highlights, in particular, the significant economic opportunities for EU farmers and agri-food exporters resulting from the removal of Rimosso: the very high Mexican tariffs on products such as cheese and pork, which currently reach up to 45 %, and poultry, which currently reach up to 100 %; welcomes the opportunities this presents for European food producers; notes that the EU maintains an agri-food trade surplus with Mexico; stresses the importance of closely monitoring, during its implementation, the impact of the Agreement on sensitive sectors of the EU, such as those relevant to coastal and fishing communities and their dependent processing industries, including, but not limited to, those making products such as canned tuna; Aggiunto: remaining tariffs on agri-food products may benefit large exporters while increasing pressure on smaller farmers in the EU and Mexico by favouring export-oriented, large-scale production; warns that the cumulative effect of successive trade agreements risks market destabilisation, downward pressure on prices and further challenges for farm incomes; calls on the Commission to ensure reciprocity of standards, strengthened pesticide controls and full compliance with EU standards for food safety, animal and plant health, and environmental and consumer protection; stresses that trade policy should support farmers’ livelihoods, sustainable agriculture and food sovereignty;
