List of potential AGRICULTURAL PRACTICES that ECO-SCHEMES could support
The CAP is instrumental in managing the transition towards a sustainable food system and in strengthening the efforts of European farmers to contribute to the EU’s climate objectives and to protect the environment. Eco-schemes are a new instrument in the CAP to support this transition. Member States will set eco-schemes in their CAP strategic plans. The Commission will assess and approve them as key tools for the CAP to deliver on the Green Deal targets.
The European Commission has published the document 'List of potential AGRICULTURAL PRACTISES that ECO-SCHEMES could support'. This document contributes to the debate, enhances transparency of the process and gives farmers, administrations, scientists, stakeholders and the public the opportunity to discuss eco-schemes. This list has been established after a thorough discussion with experts.
