Abstract

Common Agricultural Policy (CAP) is one of the first common policies adopted by the European Union. Its genesis was a reaction to food problems that followed the Second World War, and measures were adopted in the European Economic Community (EEC). The term "common policy" fairly reflects one of the defining features of the CAP, namely that, for about 90% of agricultural products, the decision not remain with the Member States but the European Union. CAP is not only one of the first common policies, but also among the most important. In its present form, agricultural policy is built around two pillars: the first - and original - is the common market organizations, common measures include regulating the operation of integrated markets for agricultural products, and the second, which has gained widespread in the last decade is that of rural development and includes structural measures targeting the harmonious development of rural areas, in some aspects: social, business diversity, quality products, protect the environment.
