Motion for a resolution
Paragraph 14 a (new)

14a. Notes that measures to target generational renewal in the agricultural sector are needed given that only 6% of European farmers are younger than 35, and at the same time 4.5 million will retire in the next 10 years; Recognizes that young farmers have obstacles to start up such as high investment costs, access to land and credit. The measures for young farmers contained in pillar II have proved to be insufficient in stopping rapid ageing in the agricultural sector. Thus, it is necessary to call for the possibilities of increasing the amount of direct payments for young farmers within pillar I in order to attract young people to the farming sector and support them in the first years of business, when they are the most vulnerable;

Motion for a resolution
Paragraph 48

48. Is aware of the importance of the second pillar, in view of its environmental, modernisation and structural improvement achievements, but also for attaining political objectives, which should also benefit farmers; calls therefore for second- pillar measures to be better suited to their objectives, so that the effectiveness of growth, employment and climate measures and measures for the benefit of rural areas can be increased; considers that, in this context, particular attention should be devoted to assisting young farmers; in face of the rapid ageing farming population in Europe, attractive measures for young farmers are urgent; as a supply to pillar I it is necessary to strengthen and improve existing supportive measures for young farmers in pillar II, in particular support for innovation and modernizing investments on the farm; encourages educational and training programmes to be developed for young farmers.
