Recital 1 a (new)
(1a) In its resolution of 30 May 2019 on the Multiannual Financial Framework and own resources for 2021-2027, the European Parliament deplored the act that the Commission proposal of 2 May 2018 on the MFF for 2021-2027 led directly to a 15% reduction in the level of the CAP, and stated that it was opposed to any cuts that would adversely impact on the very nature and objectives of that policy. It also questioned, in this context, the proposal to drastically cut the EARDF by more than 25%

(31) The CAP should ensure that Member States increase the environmental delivery by respecting local needs and farmers' actual circumstances. Member States should under direct payments in the CAP Strategic Plan set up Eco-schemes voluntary for farmers, which should be fully coordinated with the other relevant interventions. They should be defined by the Member States as a payment granted either for incentivising and remunerating the provision of public goods by agricultural practices beneficial to the environment and climate or as a compensation forand the introduction of these practices. In both cases tThey should aim at enhancing the environmental and climate performance of the CAPagricultural holdings and should consequently be conceived to go beyond the mandatory requirements already prescribed by the system of conditionality. Member States may decide to set up eco- schemes for agricultural practicesto promote all forms of sustainable production model (organic farming, conservation agriculture, agroforestry, integrated farming, etc.), environmental certification such as the enhancedemes, extensive livestock farming, agricultural practices to improve the management of permanent pastures and landscape features, and organic farming. These schemes may also includincluding agriculture and viticulture on steep slopes or terraces. These schemes may also include measures of a type other than rural development agri-environment and climate commitments, as well as measures of the same type as the ‘entry- level schemes’ which may be a condition for taking up more ambitious rural development commitments.

(32) Member States should be allowed to use part of their financial ceiling available for direct payments for coupled income support in order to improve competitiveness, sustainability, and/or quality in certain sectors and productions that are particularly important for social, economic or environmental reasons andor undergo certain difficulties. Furthermore, Member States should also be allowed to use an additional part of their financial ceiling available for direct payments to grant coupled income support specifically for the support of protein crop production in order to reduce the Union's deficit in this regard and to develop a real strategic plan in accordance with the European parliament report 2017/2116 (INI) and the European Commission report (November 2018).

Recital 35 a (new)
(35a) As the vast majority of undertakings in the winegrowing sector are small and medium-sized enterprises, a derogation from the maximum duration of the promotion action in third countries is appropriate for actions where the beneficiaries are PDO and PGI management bodies, since the beneficiaries of the measure are all winegrowing holdings, most of which are small and medium-sized enterprises which do not have the resources to carry out promotion programmes in third country markets on an individual and sustainable basis for a specific period of time. Therefore, the fact that it is not possible to conduct ongoing campaigns with the same activities or target groups after three or five years puts small and medium-sized enterprises at a disadvantage compared to large enterprises.

(38) Support for management commitments may include organic farming premia for the maintenance of and the conversion to organic land; payments for other types of interventions supporting environmentally friendly production systems such as agro-ecology, conservation agriculture and, integrated production, digital agriculture and precision agriculture; forest environmental and climate services and forest conservation; premia for forests and establishment of agroforestry systems, the maintenance of perennial agricultural tree crops and vineyards exploiting agricultural land on terraces and steep slopes; animal welfare; conservation, sustainable use and development of genetic resources. Member States may develop other schemes under this type of interventions on the basis of their needs. This type of payments should cover additional costs and income foregone only resulting from commitments going beyond the baseline of mandatory standards and requirements established in Union and national law, as well as conditionality, as laid down in the CAP Strategic Plan. Commitments related to this type of interventions may be undertaken for a pre- established annual or pluri-annual period and might go beyond seven years where duly justified.

(42) In the light of the need to fill the investment gap in the Union agricultural sector and improve access to financial instruments for priority groups, notably young farmers, women and new entrants with higher risk profiles, use of the InvestEU guarantee and combination of grants and financial instruments should be encouraged. Since the use of financial instruments across Member States varies considerably as a result of differences in terms of access to finance, banking sector development, presence of risk capital, familiarity of public administrations and potential range of beneficiaries, Member States should establish in the CAP Strategic Plan appropriate targets, beneficiaries and preferential conditions, and other possible eligibility rules.

(55) In order to ensure a clear strategic nature of these CAP Strategic Plans, and to facilitate the links with other Union policies, and notably with established long- term national targets deriving from Union legislation or international agreements such as those related to climate change, forests, biodiversity, and water, it is appropriate that there should be one single CAP Strategic Plan per Member State. Taking account the administrative structure of Member Stats, the Strategic Plan shall, where appropriate, include regionalised rural development interventions.

(60) Considering that flexibility should be accorded to Member States as regards the choice of delegating part of the implementation of the CAP Strategic Plan at regional level on the basis of avia Regional Intervention Programs in coherence with the national framework, in order to facilitate co- ordination among the regions in addressing nation-wide challenges, it is appropriate that the CAP Strategic Plans provide a description of the interplay between national and regional interventions.

(72) In a context where Member States will have much more flexibility and subsidiarity on the design of interventions, networks are a key tool to drive and steer policy and to ensure sufficient attention and capacity in the Member States. A single network should ensure better coordination between networking activities at the Union and at the national and regional levels. The European and national CAP network replace the current European Network for Rural Development (ENRD) and EIP for ‘agricultural productivity and sustainability’ networks and the National Rural Networks, in the form of a platform providing for more exchange of knowledge in order to capture the results and added value of the policy at European level, particularly the Horizon Europe policy. In the same perspective of improvement of the exchange of knowledge and innovation, an EIP for ‘agricultural productivity and sustainability’ is set up, implementing the interactive innovation model in accordance with the methodology outlined in this Regulation.
