Abstract

The Common Agricultural Policy (CAP) is one of the most valuable policies of the European Union, whose role in managing current challenges, and in general in achieving sustainability, is of almost inestimable importance. From the time of its establishment, after several reforms, the CAP still strives to guarantee a safe, fair price food supply for the citizens of the European Union. During its presidency of the Council of the European Union in 2011, Hungary effectively contributed to the reform process of the CAP, thus contributing to the development of the policy. Declaring the multifunctional nature of agriculture, the CAP supports the actors of agriculture and the development of the countryside, as well as generational renewal by empowering young farmers. In addition it favours good management practices that are environmentally friendly, counteract the harmful consequences of climate change, and comply with agri-environmental protection requirements.
