On 15 January 2020, the European Parliament announced its Resolution on the European Green Deal , which includes a specific request to the Commission to analyse the contribution of the CAP reform proposal to the EU’s environmental, climate, and biodiversity protection commitments in order to fully align it to the goals set in the European Green Deal (see point 58 of the resolution).
In order to reply to this request, the Commission services have analysed the links between the CAP reform proposals and the Green Deal, and identified the potential obstacles and/or gaps jeopardising the ambition level of the Green Deal in the agricultural sector. Taking into account positions expressed in the Council and the European Parliament, the analysis concludes with the identification of steps needed to fully align the CAP with the Green Deal and its associated strategies such as the Farm to Fork Strategy and the Biodiversity Strategy.
