Cap the CAP

For a Fair CAP, Cap the subsidies

 

Tuesday 12th Mach 2013

 

Greens/EFA MEPs rallied outside European Parliament this morning and met with NGOs to support their calls for genuine CAP reform.

 

The vote for the reform of the Common Agricultural Policy will take place tomorrow from noon, Wednesday 13th March.

 

The vote in the Agricultural committee in January unravelled the European Commission's somewhat Green leaning proposal on CAP reform and resulted in an even less ambitious text.

 

Our MEPs are are now working to change the trend of the vote in committee.

 

A real Green and Fair CAP reform must focus on two points:

 

1. REAL GREENING : No to the "less money, no greening approach"

 

2. FAIRNESS: There is enough money for a greener and solidarity focused CAP

The Greens/EFA MEPs carried banners calling for:

 

Agricultural Revolution: Go for crop rotation

 

For a fair CAP: Cap the subsidies
