- CAP Implementation

Based on inputs from the members of a dedicated Thematic Group, this document includes ideas and suggestions for addressing elements of the economic vulnerability of farming, as well as proposals for different areas of action.
- 2023-2027
The Thematic Group (TG) on Economic Vulnerability of Farming explored various issues, including risk management. Members also considered how challenges can be overcome by farm businesses, and debated how the Common Agricultural Policy (CAP) currently addresses, or could better address, economic vulnerabilities.
Input for this report is based on a series of formal and informal discussions held over the course of the TG's work. Members focused their discussions on four focus areas:
- Preparedness and preventative actions
- Insurance and mutual funds
- Cooperation
- Supporting environment
In each focus area, members initially debated ideas and suggestions for addressing the economic vulnerability of farming before developing a single proposal. The document reflects the outcomes of these discussions, which TG members trust will help inform how both policy and practice can help to better address the economic vulnerability of farming.
