Investments supported under the CAP SP shall aim to provide adequate resources to meet future demands, including environmental and climate objectives, new technologies and digitalisation, fair income for farmers and workers, improving rural conditions, and improving farm resilience. Other commitments will target organic farming systems, animal welfare, the apiculture sector, eco-schemes and more sustainable agricultural practices, as well as support for young farmers.
