Does the new CAP measure up? – NGOs assessment against 10 tests for a Green Deal-compatible EU Farming Policy
In this report, the EEB, BirdLife, and Greenpeace unpick the most important features of the new Common Agricultural Policy (CAP) and assess whether the content and governance of this new policy match up to 10 Tests for a Green Deal-compatible EU Farm Policy.
The EU framework for the new CAP is strikingly similar to the previous CAP which failed to deliver environmental improvements. As such, it does not provide the guarantees and safeguards that would bring this policy in line with the EU Green Deal, as it leaves Member States free to design national CAP Strategic Plans that largely maintain the status quo.
