The MFF proposals for 2021-2027 were published by Budget Commissioner Gunther Oettinger on 2 May 2018. The proposal indicates a 5% cut in the CAP budget for the next MFF period of 2021 - 2027.
The total CAP budget (EAGF and EAFRD) will be approximately €365 billion over the 7 year period (2021-2027). Pillar 1 (EAGF) will account for approximately €286 billon with Pillar 2 (EAFRD) accounting for approximately €79 billion.
My officials are continuing to analyse the proposals. The CAP regulations are due to be published in early June 2018 and are expected to include the allocations per Member State.
I will continue to work closely with other Member States, the European Commission and the European Parliament to ensure as strong a CAP budget as possible post 2020.
