Support the farmers who maintain Europe’s pastoral landscapes – change the CAP rules on permanent pastures
Since 1992, successive CAP reforms have led to the decoupling from production of mainstream support payments to farmers (Pillar 1). Instead of paying farmers for a quantity of production, payments are attached to the land that farmers use. To determine if a piece of land is eligible for CAP payments, the EU has introduced rules and guidelines, intended to ensure that the land in question is under active farming management and/or maintained at least to a minimum agricultural and environmental standard.
