The European Parliament has sent a "serious signal" to the European Commission on Common Agricultural Policy (CAP), according to Fianna Fáil MEP Barry Cowen

A key vote on the future direction of the Common Agricultural Policy (CAP) will take place later today in the European Parliament’s Committee on Agriculture and Rural Development (AGRI)

The European Multiannual Financial Framework (MFF) for 2028 to 2034 should include increased CAP funding, Mr Cowen says in the report
