The Commission have presented their latest study on the performance of the current CAP. It is an opportunity for MEPs to inform themselves as to what is working and what is not. It aids those that are elected to make better decisions. That's if they bother to turn up. https://t. 2.2K views · 17 likes · 4 reposts · 0 replies 04 Sep 2026 · Open on X →

The Common Markets Organisation regulation is up for reform. It covers many areas. In the last reform the farmers position in the Market place was strengthened making it more likely that they get a return for what they produce. This must be improved further in the latest reform. 1.2K views · 4 likes · 2 reposts · 0 replies 03 Sep 2026 · Open on X →

That shouldn't diminish the contribution they can and do make to food security. https://t.co/jMnjPfpHex 1.8K views · 34 likes · 10 reposts · 1 replies 03 Sep 2026 · Open on X →
