The Common Agricultural Policy (CAP) protects family farm incomes, supports the rural economy, ensures the production of high-quality safe food for consumers and protects rural landscapes and the environment.
The CAP consists of a Two Pillar Structure:
- Pillar 1 Income Support (The main schemes include the Basic Payment Scheme and Greening)
- Pillar 2 Infrastructure, Environment and Development Support (The main schemes include GLAS, EIP-AGRI and TAMS)
The CAP was established in 1962. Over the years it has evolved to meet the changing needs and demands of European agriculture and the wider European society. The latest CAP reform is no different in this regard and in line with societal demands includes a very strong emphasis on the environment as shown below.

The CAP Post-2020 Consultative Committee was established in May 2019. It provides a forum to allow stakeholders express their views and remain updated as the CAP reform discussions progress. Membership, meeting documents and presentations can be viewed here CAP Post 2020 Consultative Committee
For CAP Post 2020, each Member State will have to develop a CAP Strategic Plan. As part of Ireland’s preparations for the CAP Strategic Plan a full Public Consultation was held in Autumn 2019. Members of the public were able to submit submissions and in addition three regional public events were held. The submissions can be viewed hereCAP Post 2020 - Public Submissions

Commission CAP Communication
ÍoslódáilThe EU is now on the brink of a new CAP programme and this overview describes the direct payments approach in Ireland for the years 2015 to 2019. It includes information on direct payments ceilings, examines the population of farmers from 2005 to present and also details the convergence model, the supports used for generational renewal, and other aspects.
The document below uses the European Commission’s proposals as the basis to model how direct payments could be affected by various options. It seeks to inform stakeholders on likely trends that could emerge from different aspects and options within the proposals.
CAP post 2020- Direct Payments Modelling - September 2019
This document uses the European Commission’s proposals as the basis to model how direct payments could be affected by various options. It seeks to inform stakeholders on likely trends that could emerge from different aspects and options within the proposals.
ÍoslódáilNegotiations on the new CAP programme are ongoing and are due to conclude in the coming months (May 2021). At this point, there is much debate on the level of convergence that is likely in the new programme. Council has accepted a new minimum convergence level of 75%, however during the negotiations with the European Parliament, a higher rate of 85% has been proposed. It is useful at this point to provide an outline of how this change might affect payment entitlement values if this level were in the final regulations
