"The common agricultural policy (CAP) is one of the oldest policies at Community level. While it needs to be adapted to meet new needs and new expectations, it must not disappear. It is a policy that has proved its worth and one that I am determined to support, as are many colleagues and citizens. This report, which I supported in plenary, clearly demonstrates the developments in the agricultural world, which bring with them new challenges for the future. They include demographic trends, such as aging farming populations and the obstacles faced by young farmers to starting up. There are also new concerns, such as the need to combat the volatility of agricultural prices in order to guarantee greater food security, or the need to take account of environmental protection. In the face of all these challenges, the solution can only be found at European level. This solution is the one advocated by this report: the CAP must remain a truly Community policy, but its operation needs to be reviewed so as to make it fairer and more effective."@en1
