Posted November 27th, 2005 at 10:57AMThe Issue of the Common Agricultural Policy
Abstract: The European Union’s Common Agricultural Policy was created in a time when food supplies were not guaranteed, and the impact of the Second World War was still affecting the agricultural sector. Through the years, the CAP’s goals have changed – from providing steady supplies at reasonable prices, to providing quality, safe products, the production of which helps the rural communities in which more than half of the EU citizens live, work, and play. Many still believe that more structural, larger reforms to the CAP need to be made, but the path to these reforms is unclear.
