  5. Ministère de l’Agriculture et de la Pêche5 The non food challenge • Fulfill the European targets on renewable energies in a sustainable way • Improve the energy efficiency of agriculture • Support non food added value for agri commodities

  6. Ministère de l’Agriculture et de la Pêche6 The environmental challenge • Improve current production systems • Keep being productive => We need more technology

  7. Ministère de l’Agriculture et de la Pêche7 The challenge of economic growth of rural areas • Interaction with the chain value : geographical patterns matter • Less favoured areas mean too

  8. Ministère de l’Agriculture et de la Pêche8 Principles • On trade • On budget • On strategy

  9. Ministère de l’Agriculture et de la Pêche9 Keep an appropriate market access • The costs of the European food model • The limits of competitive advantages for externalities • Considering non tariff issues Agriculture is about much more than trade

  10. Ministère de l’Agriculture et de la Pêche10 Think about substance, not only figures • No pre-requisite : • debate about what we want before deciding how much we spend. • Anticipate • Start the debate before the budget review

  11. Ministère de l’Agriculture et de la Pêche11 Think about goals first • The limits of WTO-driven policies • Finding the relevant tools

  12. Ministère de l’Agriculture et de la Pêche12 What sustainable supports? • Legitimacy • a fair distribution • taking into account the society expectations

  13. Ministère de l’Agriculture et de la Pêche13 What sustainable supports? • Efficiency • a focused market management • Working out new tools to bring the desired externalities • For example 1st pillar supports more targeted towards environment

  14. Ministère de l’Agriculture et de la Pêche14 Conclusions • We need to produce more and in a more sustainable way • Key challenge : find the right tools to adress food and environmental security • Agri food businesses are important to support rural economic growth • CAP policy has to adapt to address these challenges • We must keep a strong political commitment • We must secure the appropriate budget
