Evaluation study of the implementation of the EIP-AGRI

In 2016, independent consultants, Coffey International Development, conducted an evaluation study of the EIP-AGRI, for the European Commission (DG AGRI). The study identified the strengths and weaknesses of the EIP-AGRI, opportunities and threats, and made recommendations to improve it. The study team spoke to key actors across the
Member States, including government officials, farmers’ representatives, academic researchers and businesses. Given the fact that EIP-AGRI has only just begun to be implemented, final Operational Group project results were not yet available when the research took place. For this reason, the study relied to a large extent on approved implementation plans (RDPs) and related national legislation, first calls and on the likely effectiveness and efficiency of the activities that are expected to follow.
