THE NEW DELIVERY MODEL OF THE CAP EU Specific objectives EU Set of common Indicators Broad types of interventions Identification of needs in MS's CAP Plan MEMBER STATES Tailor CAP interventions to their needs Implementation / Progress towards targets 2
FOCUS ON PERFORMANCE Multi-annual programming approach for the whole CAP COMMON OBJECTIVES INDICATORS TYPES OF INTERVENTIONS Assurance Annual Performance Clearance Linking expenditure to output Common Output Indicators Monitoring Annual Performance Review Checking progress towards targets Common Result Indicators Policy performance Interim Evaluation Assessing performance towards objectives Common Impact Indicators 3
PLANNING REPORTING ASSURANCE - PERFORMANCE 0 1 2 Annual performance report Annual performance clearance CAP Strategic Plan Annual accounts Management declaration Annual financial clearance Performance & Assurance Certification Body opinion Annual performance review 4
ANNUAL FINANCIAL AND PERFORMANCE CLEARANCE AND PERFORMANCE REVIEW 2 NB: Impacts are only assessed through evaluation not annually! Annual financial clearance (art 51) EXPENDITURE Completeness, accuracy and veracity of the annual accounts Annual performance clearance (art 52) OUTPUTS Correspondence of outputs and expenditure Annual performance review (art 121(8)&(9) SPR and 39 HZR) RESULTS Possible action plans in cases of deviations >25% 5
INDICATORS IN THE CAP STRATEGIC PLANS Common Output Indicators Common Result Indicators Common Impact Indicators The output indicators serve the purpose of counting what is immediately generated by an intervention Output counts each intervention once, but one intervention can contribute to several results Result indicators serve the purpose of linking interventions to their policy objectives Result indicators are used for target setting in CAP plans and monitoring progress towards those targets To be planned in CAP Strategic Plan and reported in Annual Performance Report (APR) CAP Policy Performance Impact indicators are used to evaluate policy performance at the level of overall objectives Not to be set as targets in CAP Strategic Plan and reported in APR

WHAT FOR: THE NEW ARCHITECTURE OF CAP OBJECTIVES BROADER CAP OBJECTIVES FOSTER A BOLSTER STRENGTHEN RESILIENT FARM SECTOR ENVIRONMENT AND CLIMATE FABRIC IN RURAL AREAS SPECIFIC CAP OBJECTIVES Economic Ensure fair income Increase Competitiveness Rebalance power in food chains Environment Environment & Climate & Climate Climate change action Environmental care Landscapes and biodiversity Social Generational renewal Vibrant rural areas Food and health quality Sustainability CROSS-CUTTING CAP OBJECTIVES Modernisation Simplification 10
OVERVIEW OF THE NEW DIRECT PAYMENTS Reduction of all direct payments Above EUR 60 000 and capping at 100 000 To RD and/or to DP (with priority for redistributive income support for sustainability) Conditionality rules Enhanced with regard to environment and climate Coupled support Wide range of sectors (new: non-food products with potential to replace fossil material in the bio-economy) Up to 10% (+ 2 % for protein crops) of DP envelope (with exceptions) Complementary income support for young farmers Additional payment per hectare For young farmers who are newly set up for the 1 st time Additional amount per hectare not exceeding national average From bigger to smaller and medium-sized farms Basic Income support for sustainability Payment per eligible hectare Possibly differentiated by groups of territories facing similar socio-economic or agronomic conditions Minimum requirements (min. farm size) Eco-schemes For practices beneficial to environment and climate Requirements and amount per hectare to be determined by MS Complementary redistributive income support for sustainability Amount(s) per hectare, ranges of hectares and max number of hectares to be determined by MS If with payment entitlements (PEs): - further internal convergence (no PE value < 75% average by 2026 at latest) - maximum value of PE Round sum payment for small farmers Round sum payment to be determined by MS Replacing all DPs Optional for farmers Definitions (specified by MS): Genuine farmers, young farmers, agricultural activity, eligible hectare, agricultural area (arable land, permanent crops, permanent grassland)
FUTURE OF RURAL AREAS HIGHLIGHTS knowledge exchange and information area-specific disadvantages resulting from certain mandatory requirements natural or other area-specific constraints Minimum budget ringfencing of total EAFRD contribution: 30% for interventions addressing the three environmental/ climate objectives 5% for LEADER Overview of the coordination, demarcation and complementarities between EAFRD and other EU funds in rural areas in the CAP Plan installation of young farmers and rural business start-up 8 broad EU interventions to be tailored and defined by Member States (replacing around 70 measures and sub-measures) environmental, climate and other management commitments Mandatory to programme risk management tools (no minimum budget requirements) Possibility of using financial instruments (incl. working capital), also in combination with grants risk management tools investments Possibility to enhance synergies with and fund LIFE projects and Erasmus-type exchanges for young farmers Increase of the maximum amount of aid for the installation of young farmers (up to EUR 100 000) cooperation
