On 17 April 2019, the European Parliament and the Council adopted Directive (EU) 2019/633 on unfair trading practices (UTPs) in business-to-business relationships in the agricultural and food supply chain. To assess the effectiveness of measures taken by Member States in the context of this Directive, the Commission will carry out annual surveys, starting with this baseline questionnaire that aims at capturing the state of play before these new national measures are implemented.
This survey by the Joint Research Centre and the Directorate-General for Agriculture and Rural Development of the European Commission is carried out across all Member States and it targets suppliers covered by the Directive at the different stages of the agricultural and food supply.

Languages: available in all 24 EU official languages
Scope: the study includes the EU and the UK (considering the Brexit transition period ending on 31.12.2020)
Estimated effort: it will take approximately 10 minutes to fill in this survey
Deadline: Sunday, January 31, 2021
Once the survey is terminated, anonymised results will be published on the EC data portal of agro-economic Modelling (DataM) on this dashboard, that, before the deadline will be limited to the statistics of participation.
