CAP (Common Agricultural Policy)

The Common Agricultural Policy (CAP) is a set of policies implemented by the European Union to support its farmers and agricultural sector. Established to ensure food security, it provides financial assistance, promotes sustainable farming practices, and encourages rural development. CAP aims to stabilize markets, ensure a fair standard of living for farmers, and enhance the quality of food production. It also addresses environmental concerns by promoting biodiversity and sustainable land use. Through CAP, the EU seeks to balance agricultural productivity with ecological sustainability and rural community support.
