A new publication by DG AGRI emphasises the new types of support and tools made available to young farmers by the 2013 CAP reform.
The reformed CAP includes improved measures to enable young farmers to effectively set up and develop their farms. The new types of support include both increased direct payments (CAP Pillar I) and business start-up aid, higher investment support rates and specific advice on how to set up a business (CAP Pillar II).
