Digital revolution and the Common Agricultural Policy

We are on the brink of a digital revolution. The question now is how we can adapt the CAP to this technological change. In this video interview, Mario Milouchev, Director of rural development programmes 1 and pre-accession assistance in the Directorate General for Agriculture and Rural Development, explains the measures being taken by the EU, including funding for rural connectivity and development; research and innovation; and digitising and transforming European industry and services.

The Action Plan for Rural Broadband is a key measure in support of this, and its first action concerns the European Network of Broadband Competence Offices (BCO Network).

This video is part of a series of interviews on broadband roll-out in Europe, produced for the European Network of Broadband Competence Offices (BCO Network).
