Future CAP after 2013 in polish goverment opinion:
-Common Agriculture Policy should therefore retain the currents effective
instruments market intervension. This provide the „safety net” that runs in full
special situaciones. A large drop in prices, more volative prices.
- safety and security food
- sustainable development agriculture and rural areas
- equal condition of competition on the market agriculture
- EU strong competitive position in the global agriculture market
- attempts to renationalization CAP are unacceptable
- shift funds from interventions for promotion as well as the action as sociates
