On this page you can find information about support for farmers and rural stakeholders under the CAP in Italy.

Support for farmers and rural stakeholders under the Common Agricultural Policy (CAP) in Italy is managed in the 2023-2027 period nationally through their CAP Strategic Plan (CSP), funded under the European Agricultural Fund for Rural Development (EAFRD), European Agricultural Guarantee Fund (EAGF) and national contributions.  

The CAP 2023-2027 follows a performance and results-based approach built around ten objectives, which frame the EU countries’ CAP Strategic Plans. These combine targeted interventions addressing specific needs and delivering on EU-level objectives.

Italian Network

The Italian CAP Network’s activities aim to enhance the quality of rural development and CAP Strategic Plan (CSP) programming and implementation by promoting the active participation of stakeholders and fostering innovation in agriculture and rural development. In addition, these activities are designed to support the monitoring and evaluation of the CSP and to inform potential beneficiaries and civil society about the results and opportunities offered by rural development and the CAP in Italy.

The CAP Network programme focuses on 24 thematic areas, implemented through a multiannual Action Plan. The CAP Network Action Plan for the period 2025–2027 supports and contributes to the strategic drivers of the CAP Strategic Plan: equity, sustainability, innovation, and local development.

In this context, the CAP Network represents a collaborative space where local and national experiences converge to enrich the debate on CAP objectives and interventions.
