Executive summary
Metapodatki publikacije
The EU is the single largest exporter of agri-food products with exports reaching 129 bn. EUR in 2015. This export performance has been driven mainly by EU agricultural policies, structural change and technological progress in the agri-food sector, as well as EU trade policies. Following successive reforms, the focus of EU agricultural policies has shifted towards enabling economic viability of the agricultural sector and rural areas more generally and to cater to the needs of a growing global population. Not only has the level of support been lowered but the character of the EU’s agricultural policy support has also moved from market distortion towards increased market orientation. Due to structural change and technological progress in the agricultural sector, agricultural production in the EU takes place in fewer, larger and more capital-intensive farms. The total number of farms in the EU has thus dropped by 26 per cent from 2005 to 2013, and the consolidation process is expected to continue. Declining farm numbers have also led to larger farms and an increase in output per farm as well as to a drop in employment in the agricultural sector.
