EU to propose agriculture policy reform in 2017
By EUobserver
The European Commission will hold a public consultation in early 2017 on how the EU's common agricultural policy (CAP) should change. The commission will then publish a strategy paper on the future of the CAP “by the end of 2017”, commission president Jean-Claude Juncker said on Tuesday. “Simplification and modernisation are the key words” for the reform, he added.
