Abstract

Having evaluated the situation in agriculture and rural areas, and having assessed the significance of new external and internal conditions, the European Commission has decided to reform the Common Agricultural Policy of the European Union. This article presents the essence of the part of the reform plan which affects the direct support system. The author of the article also examines the impact of the reform on the system’s capacity to achieve the set goals, and on its efficiency. The research showed that the new legal framework proposed by the Commission would not directly improve the efficiency of the system, but the increased decision-making authority it grants to Member States provides an opportunity to reduce administrative outlays on the functioning of the scheme. Likewise, the effectiveness of a reformed direct support system in achieving the set goals will largely depend on decisions made by Member States, i.e. on the appropriate choice of instruments, and the accuracy of their form, as well as the equitable distribution of the available funds.

计划中的共同农业政策改革，特别涉及直接支持制度

在评估了农业和农村地区的情况，并评估了新的外部和内部条件的重要性之后，欧洲委员会决定改革欧洲联盟的共同农业政策。本文介绍了改革方案中影响直接支持制度的部分的实质。本文的作者还考察了改革对系统实现既定目标的能力和效率的影响。研究表明，委员会提出的新的法律框架不会直接提高该制度的效率，但它给予会员国的更多决策权提供了一个机会，可以减少该制度运作方面的行政开支。同样，改革后的直接支助制度在实现既定目标方面的效力将在很大程度上取决于会员国所作的决定，即取决于文书的适当选择及其形式的准确性，以及现有资金的公平分配。
