CAP Reform Adopted: A Victory for Common Sense and a Boost for Our Farmers

Commenting on today’s approval of the reform of the Common Agricultural Policy (CAP) in the European Parliament, Volker Schnurrbusch, European policy spokesman for the ESN Group, said:

“Today’s decision is a victory of common sense over bureaucracy and ideology. At last, European agricultural policy is being brought closer to the farmers. The changes adopted will mean more national responsibility, less control from Brussels, and tangible relief for our family-run farms.

We have worked to ensure that farmers can once again decide their own future instead of being buried under a mountain of requirements and forms. This reform strengthens small and medium-sized farms, cuts red tape, and creates fair market conditions. The ESN Group has shown that conservative policy can combine decisiveness with a grounded approach.

Europe doesn’t need agricultural-policy experiments, but realistic solutions—and that is precisely what the AfD and its partners in the ESN Group stand for.”
