Annual expenditure, in 2007 constant prices.
This graphic shows how the CAP has evolved through the evolution of the CAP expenditure.
In the 80s the expenditure was mainly due to price support through market mechanisms (intervention and export subsidies).
In the end of the 80s this expenditure in market mechanisms boosts due to the agricultural surpluses.
In 1992 there is the first big shift, due to the Mac Sharry reform. The market mechanisms (in red and yellow) are reduced and replaced by direct payments (in blue). These payments were paid per hectare or per animal. Thus price support is replaced by producer support. Finally, spending on Rural Development measures also increase (in purple).
In 2003, one can see the impacts of the 2003 reform, with direct payments shifting to decoupled payments (green). Payments are no longer paid per ha or per animal but paid in function of what the farmer received in a reference period. Spending in rural development also increases.
Spending as been stabilized and despite the successive enlargements, the overall spending as a share of the GDP has actually decreased in nominal terms: 0.5% of GDP in the 80s to 0.4% now (graphic line).
Stable expenditure level since mid-1990s despite enlargements
Significant shift from market expenditure to direct payments and increased expenditure for rural development

Effect of feed prices particularly cereals + soy
Land, capital and environmental constraints
Slower pace on increasing domestic production
Expected slow decrease in pork exports: more international competition
Projected moderate consumption to outpace some production increase

Pig meat remains the most preferred meat. Increasing consumption share for poultry and decline for beef and sheep
The gap of prices between EU meat and main exporting countries has been reduced
38. Buenos Aires, 28.09.2010 38 Despite the fact that we are undergoing a somewhat silent period in the DDA negotiations, we are optimistic that an Agreement will be reached within the near future and we are hopeful that all WTO members will be satisfied with the result.
The deal would obviously generate billions of euros of additional trade flows through increased market access, reduced domestic support and export subsidisation, and contribute to the welfare of all countries signing it.
Such a boost is needed, especially at this juncture, for the world economy given the financial crisis and a bleak economic outlook for the coming months.
The deal would also consolidate a result that ensures the likelihood and possibility for development in developing countries.
