2013 : French position on CAP project

This project delves into the Common Agricultural Policy (CAP) in France post-2013, examining aid distribution, production costs in comparison to Mercosur, impacts on socioeconomic and environmental aspects, expectations regarding CAP, and potential scenarios. With emphasis on maintaining subsidies, decreasing them, and the dire consequences of the latter scenario, the project highlights the critical role of CAP in France's agro-food economy, farm structures, and diverse agricultural productions. It aims to ensure food security, sustainability, and competitiveness while addressing the challenges faced in agricultural reforms. A consensus is crucial to safeguard Europe's food safety and security against global competition.

Possibles scenarios post 2013 • Keeping the same level of CAP subsidies • Decreasing the level of CAP subsidies • IV. Conclusion

  3. Introduction General aspects: • Total area: 55 millions ha • Use land area: 32 millions ha • 62 % for crops production • 34 % for grassland • 2 % of vineyard

  4. Agro-food economy • 3,5 % of the national GDP • 66,8 billion of € • 3,4 % of the employment • Half of the value come from cereals and wine production

  5. Farms structures • 348 000 farms • Average of 73,3 hectares/ farm • 3 people for 100 ha

  6. Different productions • Crops • Vegetables • Wine • Livestock • Dairy production • Beef • Pork • Poultry

  7. I. The CAP in France

  8. A. Aid distribution Source: DG Agri

  9. EU Budget & Used land

  10. French CAP Subsidies Source: Agreste

  11. B. Production cost France vs Mercorsur Source: Office-Elevage / EMBRAPA / INTA

  12. II. Analysis of CAP impacts In which field can the CAP impact on?

  13. A. Socioeconomic • 15,5 millions (25%) of French live in the countryside • 770 000 employs (3,4% of active population) • French culture (countryside without farmers is not countryside) • Agriculture: 3,5% of GDP 66,8 billions Euros • Cereals: • 70,2 million tons • Cattle: • bovins: 19,9 millions • Pork : 14,8 millions • Poultry: 182,9 millions • Tourism : Cheese, wine production, cattle, local products

  14. SOCIAL / ECONOMICS

  15. Environment • Cereals: 94460 km2 (51% of arable land) • Cattle in mountains • Rural development: • improving the competitiveness of agriculture and forestry; • improving the environment and countryside; • improving the quality of life in rural areas and encouraging diversification of the rural economy.

  16. Environmental

  17. C. What we expect about CAP? • Food security (quantity) • Food safety (quality) • Preservation of biodiversity • Landscape maintenance • Food price stabilisation • Profitable agriculture for farmers

  18. D. Why to reform the CAP? • Take in account the environmental work of farmers • Reduce market food fluctuation prices • Favorise label and regional products • Favorise the competitiveness of farmers • Good relation between retailers/farmers • Invest more in R&D

  19. III. Possibles scenarios post 2013 A. Keeping the same level of CAP subsidies B. Decreasing the level of CAP subsidies

  20. A. Keeping the same level of CAP subsidies • To decrease the first pillar: 88 to 48% • To increase the 2nd pillar: 12% to 26% • To create a third pillar: 26% • To remunerate maintenance of public goods from farmers • To dynamise innovation

  21. B. Decreasing the level of CAP subsidies Catastrophic scenario 30% 2013 - 2020 104 400 farms 9,6 millions ha 231 000 farmers go to unemployment 4,65 millions of rural exod 20,04 billions € GDP

  22. Conclusion • Regarding the 2nd scenario we conclude that the socioeconomics and environmental problems generated by a possible reduction of CAP is too huge for France • A consensus has to be taken in order to keep food safety and food security in Europe against the emergence of third countries like Brazil & Argentina
