The European Forum on Nature Conservation and Pastoralism (EFNCP) have issued a document presenting the fears and proposals of 80 farming and environmental organisations concerning the current CAP rules for permanent pastures, and those being considered for 2014-2020 period. It sets out clear and simple proposals for changing these rules for the benefit of farmers and the environment.

The aim is to raise awareness of key issues amongst all those concerned with the sustainable future of the pastoral landscapes typically found in Europe’s more marginal regions, as well as with policy makers and political representatives involved in the reform of the CAP.
