The CAP subsidies will be incorporated into our farms from mid-October, and many of us already have them. Everyone takes theirs and each one of us reveals what he wins. But now everyone can see yours and everyone else's. And there are the names of all the real and fictional labourers, all those who, as they are, are left to impress much or little. What does not appear, what is done on the farms, what is left to enjoy immediately, what is guaranteed in the future, and what is dispersed to the letter of the whole economy of the area.

To work on the CAP elections starting in 2020, the government has just launched a diagnosis denouncing the cultivation situation in France. From now on, each Member State will have to set the objectives it wishes to pursue with the distribution of the CAP. There will still be many discussions around this election, but two concrete news that we receive from the diagnostic gap:

“Farms continue to concentrate, being less and less (1.9% less since 2010), growing farms (large farms were 25% in 2010, exceeding 40% in 2016)...”

“The levels of subsidies and their participation in the net profit of farms vary according to their scope. Direct aid without variation (to the field or to the illustrious animators) is introduced at less than 5% of the gain on farms of 20 hectares, covering between 10% and 15% of the gain for farms of 20 and 30 hectares, with 25% of 30 and 50 hectares. For farms of 50 and 200 hectares, one in three farms in France, 40% of the profit is in direct aid. These results are, at least in part, since all growing plots have been mixed, e.g. horticulture, fruticulture or vineyard farms, and smaller areas to separate them, such as the lowest direct subsidies.”
