agree  writeaway: with FrenchtoEnglish. EU-related docs are a lot of work because everything has an official English name or way of putting it and one must spend time finding it. Or not bother and just post 15 questions for Proz colleagues to do the work instead.

agree  gad: yeah, I'd prefer something like this, rather than "Agricultural Council". I think both might be correct options, though.

neutral  Flo Demolis: In this context (partenaires européens du Conseil Agricole) it is the European Agricultural Council
30 mins
disagree  xxxdf49f: no: this is about the European Agricultural Council, you can't simply invent a name for it! nothing to "prefer" or not, that's not what it's called - anyway why would Agricole become "Food" something?// how about textile flax, tobacco, hemp... food?? :))
1 hr
  -> because the point of agriculture is food production?
