Cyprus consults on new CAP, with at least €415.9 million in guaranteed support for farmers

Cyprus’s Ministry of Agriculture has launched a public consultation to set national priorities for the EU’s new Common Agricultural Policy (CAP) for 2028–2034. The programme has a total budget of approximately €2.3 billion, of which at least €415.9 million is earmarked for farmer income support. The EU funding for the current 2023–2027 CAP Strategic Plan is €373 million. The new CAP will no longer have a standalone strategic plan and will instead be incorporated into a broader National and Regional Partnership Plan. The first round of consultation is open until the end of November 2026.
