EU ministers loosen conditions on farm subsidy spending
Original: EU agriculture ministers choose fewer conditions and more flexibility for CAP spending, just when Europe needs the opposite
EU agriculture ministers have agreed to apply fewer conditions and greater flexibility to how Common Agricultural Policy funds are spent. Environmental and conservation groups, including BirdLife International, argue this is the wrong move, saying Europe should be attaching stronger conditions to farm subsidies rather than weaker ones, particularly given pressures on nature and biodiversity.
Why now: Environment groups are criticizing the weakening of requirements attached to EU farm spending.
