The Common Agricultural Policy (CAP) reform process
Environment related objective
During the period under review of this notification the implementation of the 2008 Health Check reform was completed. Further, in 2014 the implementation of the 2013 Reform started for market intervention measures and Rural Development, whereas the new Direct Payments system will be implemented starting with the 2015 budget year.

Following the Health Check, a large majority of direct support is now decoupled while cross-compliance – conformity with standards concerning environment, food safety, animal and plant health and animal welfare - remains a prerequisite to receive support.

Moreover, Rural Development policy has been further strengthened to allow farmers to face new challenges, such as climate change, renewable energies, water management and biodiversity.
