"It should already be possible to reopen negotiations in this mandate" on the Community Agricultural Policy (CAP) "if we want to do something quickly for farmers".
“In the short term we can be more flexible in terms of interpreting the concept of extraordinary circumstances” for farmers “because they are not able to operate normally.”
But before the current deadline of the CAP in 2027 "we can respond to farmers by also reflecting on a reopening of the basic acts of the CAP".
EU Agriculture Commissioner Janusz Wojciechowski said this at a press conference after the Agrifish Council.
