AGREEMENTAgreement • January 5th, 2017
This agreement brings a change of policy with regard to the scheme that has been in place for the past quarter-century. The aim is to phase out support entitlements over the term of the agreement, both as the base for direct payments and as quotas granting priority access to the domestic market. However, a decision on the foreseen removal of quotas in 2021 will not be made until 2019. The form of the government’s support will change and will be based on a larger number of criteria than before. Changes to milk pricing arrangements have been agreed upon. Moreover, the agreement provides for a new approach to providing support for beef production.
