Introduction Original system – problematic Pressure for reform
– Budget– External – Consumer– Environmental
Fig1: welfare consequences– Compare CAP with self sufficiency under
free trade ( consider Pw & P intv) If exported outside EU, export
restitution = area abcd ( + storage costs)

Early 1980s ‘Guidelines for European Agriculture’– Aim: reduce production & prices– Partially implemented, not significant
![Page 8: CAP Reform Ref: CAPreform feb07 Introduction Original system – problematic Pressure for reform –Budget –External –Consumer –Environmental Fig1: welfare](https://reader035.vdocuments.site/reader035/viewer/2022062312/5515c4f255034693758b4801/html5/thumbnails/8.jpg)
Reform: Milk Quotas 1984 Marketing quotas imposed
– Large surpluses– EU budget problems– Milk accounted for30% of EAGGF– Price support maintained but excess
production ‘taxed’ (super-levy) Fig 2: Milk quota EU saves areas C+D
– CS - no change– PS – loses area C
![Page 9: CAP Reform Ref: CAPreform feb07 Introduction Original system – problematic Pressure for reform –Budget –External –Consumer –Environmental Fig1: welfare](https://reader035.vdocuments.site/reader035/viewer/2022062312/5515c4f255034693758b4801/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)

Assume quota allocated efficiently between farmers, if not …..
EU direct control over output Effective as ‘bottleneck’ in production
– Monitor Ineffective for other products eg.cereals
– Other methods used which may also penalise over production
• Co-responsibility levies• Budgetary stabilisers
– Not so effective

McSharry Reforms Most radical yet
– International pressure– Partial change
Aims incl.– Reduce support prices
• Increase competitiveness• Control production & increase demand
– Protect environment– Improve international relations
![Page 16: CAP Reform Ref: CAPreform feb07 Introduction Original system – problematic Pressure for reform –Budget –External –Consumer –Environmental Fig1: welfare](https://reader035.vdocuments.site/reader035/viewer/2022062312/5515c4f255034693758b4801/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)
How– Reduce price support
• Eg intitial 30% for cereals• See fig 3 for benefits
– Introduce DIRECT INCOME PAYMENTS to farmers to compensate potential loss of income – SET ASIDE for cereals
• Now price supp. & income payments• Partly DECOUPLED farm income supp.• Slippage may be a problem
– Early retirement• Consolidation of holdings
![Page 17: CAP Reform Ref: CAPreform feb07 Introduction Original system – problematic Pressure for reform –Budget –External –Consumer –Environmental Fig1: welfare](https://reader035.vdocuments.site/reader035/viewer/2022062312/5515c4f255034693758b4801/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)
– Environment: Discourage intensive production methods
• Subsidies no longer depend upon output alone• Cross-compliance
– Exclude small farms
![Page 18: CAP Reform Ref: CAPreform feb07 Introduction Original system – problematic Pressure for reform –Budget –External –Consumer –Environmental Fig1: welfare](https://reader035.vdocuments.site/reader035/viewer/2022062312/5515c4f255034693758b4801/html5/thumbnails/18.jpg)
Choice: Set-aside or not? Depends upon market price for cereal &
yields Choice
– (1) use all arable acreage & receive lower price
– (2) set-aside & receive 2 components• compensation payment + higher (‘original’)
price
![Page 19: CAP Reform Ref: CAPreform feb07 Introduction Original system – problematic Pressure for reform –Budget –External –Consumer –Environmental Fig1: welfare](https://reader035.vdocuments.site/reader035/viewer/2022062312/5515c4f255034693758b4801/html5/thumbnails/19.jpg)
Fig 4– Assume
• All farmers participate in set-aside scheme• All farmers are equally efficient
New supply curve Ssa If direct compensation equals at least
area H, rational farmer will set-aside Greater complexity
– Farms not equally efficient– Prices change after S shifts to Ssa– See additional handout

Further Reform
WTO Agenda 2000
– 2000 onwards– Still 2 systems
• Continued move to price supp.
– Milk unchanged– Greater emphasis on environment– Greater burden on States
• subsidiarity
![Page 23: CAP Reform Ref: CAPreform feb07 Introduction Original system – problematic Pressure for reform –Budget –External –Consumer –Environmental Fig1: welfare](https://reader035.vdocuments.site/reader035/viewer/2022062312/5515c4f255034693758b4801/html5/thumbnails/23.jpg)
CAP reform, June 2003 2003-2013 Further development of 1993 reforms CAP comprises 2 pillars
– Pillar 1: Market support measures & direct subsidies
– Pillar 2: Rural development programmes/policy
Pillar 1 spending 1% growth ceiling (nominal terms) –Brussels Ceiling 2002
![Page 24: CAP Reform Ref: CAPreform feb07 Introduction Original system – problematic Pressure for reform –Budget –External –Consumer –Environmental Fig1: welfare](https://reader035.vdocuments.site/reader035/viewer/2022062312/5515c4f255034693758b4801/html5/thumbnails/24.jpg)
Move to single farm payment - decoupling
• based on value of previous output
Payment linked to environment/food safety/animal welfare standards - cross compliance
Direct payments (Pillar 1) reduced, switch funding to (Pillar 2) Rural Devt. Programmes (RDP)– modulation: transfer funds direct payments
to RDPs– incremental
![Page 25: CAP Reform Ref: CAPreform feb07 Introduction Original system – problematic Pressure for reform –Budget –External –Consumer –Environmental Fig1: welfare](https://reader035.vdocuments.site/reader035/viewer/2022062312/5515c4f255034693758b4801/html5/thumbnails/25.jpg)
Pillar 2 supports– Agriculture as provider of public good– Development of rural areas
Exemptions, eg. cereals 25% payments linked to production (France)
2007-2013 Financial Perspective – Allocates more to Pillar 1, but Brussels
Ceiling. - Pressure!– Proposed expenditure for both pillars
CAP down to 26% of EU budget (2013)

Conclusions CAP has achieved some of it’s objectives Move from price support since McSharry, but
now more complex with 2 systems CAP expenditure as part of budget lower Conflict with single market? Political & social aspects Fraud Enlargement Further reform required
