Crunch talks on EU common agricultural policy to finish next week<\/strong><\/p>\n\n

Brussels<\/strong> \u2013 The European Commission, European Parliament and national governments are in the final stages of negotiations on the EU\u2019s common agricultural policy (CAP) for the years 2023-2027. After seven months of talks, an agreement is expected next week at a meeting between representatives of the three EU institutions, scheduled for 25-26 May<\/strong>.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n

Although the deal will need to be rubber-stamped by the European Parliament and representatives of the EU\u2019s national governments, the content will be finalised in these crunch talks.<\/p>\n\n

EU leaders will likely trumpet this CAP deal as a win for the climate and the environment. However, Greenpeace, BirdLife, ClientEarth and the European Environmental Bureau have analysed the deal on the table, and found that it doesn\u2019t match up to what\u2019s needed on climate, biodiversity, pollution, food security and accountability.<\/p>\n\n
