Will the European Green Deal Change the Common Agricultural Policy (CAP)?

抄録

This paper examines the impact of the European Green Deal (EGD) and its sectoral strategies on the CAP. The EGD emphasizes the CAP and relies on it financially. Numerical targets will be addressed through combinations of the CAP and environmental measures. The proposed CAP reform has its own environmental and climate measures that are compatible with those of the EGD, but there are uncertainties arising from the deliberations on the reform and the increased discretion of Member States (MS). A difficult manoeuvre is required between CAP budgetary limits, eroded policy-making powers, increased burden on the agricultural sector, and evolving EGD policies.
