IFOAM EU - the European umbrella organisation for organic food and farming - published a guide to 'Using Eco-schemes in the new CAP'.

This guide has been developed primarily for policymakers and Member State officials involved in the national and regional programming processes of the CAP Strategic Plans.

It also provides support to other stakeholders and practitioners from the public and private sectors and civil society (including agricultural, environmental, food, health and consumer NGOs), with a direct or indirect involvement in the programming and evaluation process of the CSPs.
