"For some time now, there has been much speculation about cutbacks in the budget. This is a contentious issue and we must find a solution soon so that the EU will be able to introduce its new programmes before the deadline of the 14 January 2014.
In the worst case scenario, if a solution cannot be reached, there would be tremendous uncertainty in planning and operation issues as a result. Such a lack of leadership would be to the detriment of the European people, especially in the context of the current economic difficulties.
The leaders of the EU are now planning to reduce the budget for the common agriculture policy. Evidently, they have no clear understanding of how important the CAP is for the European people, for the environment and for the economy. The CAP is not just for farmers. It is a measure that benefits rural populations, produces high-quality food for European consumers, has great capability for developing trade, creating jobs and encouraging economic growth, and, above all, ensures that healthy sources of food are available in a world where the population is increasing and resources are under pressure."@en1
