1 00:00:00,000 --> 00:00:04,000 Great! I finally found you only Now what was I thinking 2 00:00:15,000 --> 00:00:19,000 I can not take this anymore I will surrender 3 00:00:24,000 --> 00:00:26,000 Uh, why? 4 00:00:26,000 --> 00:00:30,000 Noooooooooooooooooooo 5 00:00:40,000 --> 00:00:44,000 Marked by the food shortage post-war, Europe is establishing the PAC 6 00:00:44,000 --> 00:00:49,000 Common agricultural policy, the first European policy integrated 7 00:00:49,000 --> 00:00:53,000 The objectives of the PAC were clearly defined in 1957 8 00:00:53,000 --> 00:00:58,000 In the Treaty of Rome, the founding act of the European Economic Community 9 00:00:58,000 --> 00:01:00,000 Its objectives are the following 10 00:01:00,000 --> 00:01:02,000 Increase productivity 11 00:01:02,000 --> 00:01:05,000 Ensure a fair living standard for farmers 12 00:01:05,000 --> 00:01:07,000 Stabilize markets 13 00:01:07,000 --> 00:01:12,000 And finally guarantee the security of supplies at reasonable prices 14 00:01:12,000 --> 00:01:14,000 The machine is launched 15 00:01:17,000 --> 00:01:20,000 1958, Stresa, Italy 16 00:01:20,000 --> 00:01:22,000 The great principles of the PAC are established 17 00:01:22,000 --> 00:01:27,000 Unique market, community preference and financial solidarity 18 00:01:28,000 --> 00:01:33,000 To meet this, the Common Organization of Major Agricultural Markets is set up 19 00:01:33,000 --> 00:01:35,000 The modernization of the sector is launched 20 00:01:35,000 --> 00:01:40,000 And in 1962, a European Fund for the financing of this policy 21 00:01:40,000 --> 00:01:44,000 The European Fund for Orientation and Agricultural Guarantees is created 22 00:01:44,000 --> 00:01:46,000 It finances the whole PAC 23 00:01:48,000 --> 00:01:51,000 To meet all these challenges, the PAC also builds instruments 24 00:01:51,000 --> 00:01:55,000 Customs rights are gradually removed between Member States 25 00:01:55,000 --> 00:01:59,000 And a Common Customs Tariff vis-à-vis third countries is established 26 00:01:59,000 --> 00:02:02,000 A large harmonization movement is also launched 27 00:02:02,000 --> 00:02:08,000 It touches the administrative, sanitary, phytosanitary and veterinary rules 28 00:02:09,000 --> 00:02:10,000 And that's not all 29 00:02:10,000 --> 00:02:14,000 To protect its products, Europe introduces imports 30 00:02:14,000 --> 00:02:17,000 In order to promote its production abroad 31 00:02:17,000 --> 00:02:20,000 It establishes export restitutions 32 00:02:22,000 --> 00:02:24,000 Prices are set every year 33 00:02:24,000 --> 00:02:27,000 And it's a common budget that finances the PAC 34 00:02:27,000 --> 00:02:32,000 This vast common policy is also based on economic and social cohesion 35 00:02:32,000 --> 00:02:34,000 From 6 to 12 members 36 00:02:34,000 --> 00:02:36,000 From self-sufficiency to the emergence of surplus 37 00:02:36,000 --> 00:02:39,000 Until the establishment of the World Trade Organization 38 00:02:39,000 --> 00:02:42,000 The PAC adapts to the new economic given 39 00:02:42,000 --> 00:02:46,000 It also adapts to the increased demands of consumers 40 00:02:46,000 --> 00:02:50,000 Quality, security and respect for the environment 41 00:02:51,000 --> 00:02:55,000 At the turn of the 3rd millennium, Europe is preparing for a new expansion 42 00:02:55,000 --> 00:02:59,000 And in the face of globalization, in the face of an increasing external demand 43 00:02:59,000 --> 00:03:02,000 Our agriculture must be more competitive 44 00:03:04,000 --> 00:03:09,000 If we really want to align the European agricultural model to the coming millennium 45 00:03:09,000 --> 00:03:13,000 Then we have to do the following things 46 00:03:13,000 --> 00:03:16,000 First of all, we have to ensure 47 00:03:16,000 --> 00:03:21,000 That our products have the appropriate quality and are competitive 48 00:03:21,000 --> 00:03:23,000 Second, we have to ensure 49 00:03:23,000 --> 00:03:29,000 That the European agriculture can perceive all its functions 50 00:03:29,000 --> 00:03:32,000 Not only the production of meat and grains 51 00:03:32,000 --> 00:03:34,000 But also the preservation of the landscape and the environment 52 00:03:34,000 --> 00:03:40,000 Third, we have to try to make our regulations as simple as possible 53 00:03:40,000 --> 00:03:44,000 And fourth, we have to prevent under all circumstances 54 00:03:44,000 --> 00:03:46,000 That we are increasingly in a situation 55 00:03:46,000 --> 00:03:49,000 Where we spend more money on subsidies 56 00:03:49,000 --> 00:03:52,000 In order to be able to carry out exports 57 00:03:52,000 --> 00:03:56,000 Instead of satisfying the actual demand of the population 58 00:03:56,000 --> 00:03:59,000 From my point of view, the decisive measure is 59 00:03:59,000 --> 00:04:03,000 That we can compete with the prices of others 60 00:04:03,000 --> 00:04:08,000 For example, our wheat must be sold on the world market 61 00:04:08,000 --> 00:04:10,000 Only then can we be successful 62 00:04:10,000 --> 00:04:12,000 But on the other hand, that is not enough 63 00:04:12,000 --> 00:04:16,000 We also have to think about our own interests 64 00:04:16,000 --> 00:04:19,000 And that means that we have to directly pay 65 00:04:19,000 --> 00:04:21,000 The additional benefits of agriculture 66 00:04:21,000 --> 00:04:25,000 And thus also ensure the income of farmers 67 00:04:25,000 --> 00:04:27,000 The rebalancing of the support instruments 68 00:04:27,000 --> 00:04:30,000 Involves an increase in direct aid 69 00:04:30,000 --> 00:04:33,000 These direct aids are increasingly linked to the many services 70 00:04:33,000 --> 00:04:36,000 That farmers provide to society 71 00:04:36,000 --> 00:04:41,000 In fact, they are the real engine of economic activity in rural areas 72 00:04:41,000 --> 00:04:44,000 Moreover, rural development is the second pillar of the PAC 73 00:04:44,000 --> 00:04:47,000 It is the subject of an entire policy 74 00:04:47,000 --> 00:04:52,000 This policy is about the link between agriculture and the territory 75 00:04:52,000 --> 00:04:56,000 The progress of one depends on the progress of the other 76 00:04:56,000 --> 00:05:00,000 The objectives of rural development are fundamentally two 77 00:05:00,000 --> 00:05:03,000 The first is to maintain agriculture 78 00:05:03,000 --> 00:05:07,000 As the main economic activity in the rural environment 79 00:05:07,000 --> 00:05:12,000 And the second is that there is rural development 80 00:05:12,000 --> 00:05:14,000 Alongside agriculture 81 00:05:14,000 --> 00:05:17,000 So that the binomial agriculture-rural development 82 00:05:17,000 --> 00:05:20,000 Is perfectly compacted 83 00:05:21,000 --> 00:05:23,000 A very important aspect 84 00:05:23,000 --> 00:05:26,000 Is the compensatory indemnifications 85 00:05:26,000 --> 00:05:29,000 To the farmers who live in areas 86 00:05:29,000 --> 00:05:32,000 Where it is difficult to maintain agricultural production 87 00:05:33,000 --> 00:05:38,000 It is important that the farmer has a compensation 88 00:05:38,000 --> 00:05:41,000 To be able to continue to maintain agricultural activity 89 00:05:41,000 --> 00:05:45,000 Through the compensatory indemnifications mechanism 90 00:05:46,000 --> 00:05:49,000 Rural development aims to preserve and improve 91 00:05:49,000 --> 00:05:52,000 The environment, the landscape and the heritage 92 00:05:52,000 --> 00:05:55,000 The agri-environmental measures must also 93 00:05:55,000 --> 00:05:58,000 Appear in the rural development programs 94 00:05:58,000 --> 00:06:00,000 Established by the Member States 95 00:06:03,000 --> 00:06:05,000 The farm Alberese in Tuscany 96 00:06:05,000 --> 00:06:07,000 Has been specializing for three years 97 00:06:07,000 --> 00:06:09,000 In breeding and organic farming 98 00:06:09,000 --> 00:06:12,000 For Marco Baglioni, the owner of the farm 99 00:06:12,000 --> 00:06:14,000 The reform of the PAC 100 00:06:14,000 --> 00:06:16,000 Is about the reciprocal commitment 101 00:06:16,000 --> 00:06:19,000 Between agriculture and society 102 00:06:20,000 --> 00:06:25,000 The non-negotiable elements are four 103 00:06:25,000 --> 00:06:27,000 It is the general vision 104 00:06:27,000 --> 00:06:30,000 An agreement between farmers and civil society 105 00:06:30,000 --> 00:06:33,000 Where agriculture and the environment 106 00:06:33,000 --> 00:06:35,000 Are the same thing 107 00:06:35,000 --> 00:06:37,000 But it is produced 108 00:06:37,000 --> 00:06:39,000 It is produced because 109 00:06:39,000 --> 00:06:42,000 The products go for a diet 110 00:06:42,000 --> 00:06:45,000 That guarantees health 111 00:06:50,000 --> 00:06:52,000 Eating well and eating healthy 112 00:06:52,000 --> 00:06:55,000 Is a will but also a right of the consumers 113 00:06:55,000 --> 00:06:57,000 It is one of the concerns of the PAC 114 00:06:57,000 --> 00:07:00,000 A multitude of initiatives have been taken 115 00:07:00,000 --> 00:07:03,000 To guarantee the quality and safety of food 116 00:07:03,000 --> 00:07:06,000 More than 500 products have received a quality label 117 00:07:06,000 --> 00:07:09,000 A clear label is promoted by the Union 118 00:07:09,000 --> 00:07:12,000 So that the consumer knows what he is buying 119 00:07:12,000 --> 00:07:16,000 Extensive and organic production are encouraged 120 00:07:16,000 --> 00:07:19,000 The urban legislation also provides measures 121 00:07:19,000 --> 00:07:23,000 To protect the health and safety of consumers 122 00:07:23,000 --> 00:07:25,000 To fulfill all these missions 123 00:07:25,000 --> 00:07:28,000 The PAC has an important budget 124 00:07:28,000 --> 00:07:32,000 It represents half of the total budget of the EU 125 00:07:32,000 --> 00:07:35,000 The scope of the agricultural budget 126 00:07:35,000 --> 00:07:40,000 Is directly related to the degree of integration 127 00:07:40,000 --> 00:07:43,000 Of the common agricultural policy 128 00:07:43,000 --> 00:07:46,000 Due to the high degree of integration 129 00:07:46,000 --> 00:07:50,000 More money is paid on a community level 130 00:07:50,000 --> 00:07:53,000 But if you were to compare 131 00:07:53,000 --> 00:07:57,000 The national budget with the community budget 132 00:07:57,000 --> 00:07:59,000 You would soon see 133 00:07:59,000 --> 00:08:02,000 That the expenses for agriculture in the EU 134 00:08:02,000 --> 00:08:04,000 Are relative 135 00:08:04,000 --> 00:08:08,000 They are at 2% of the total public expenditure 136 00:08:09,000 --> 00:08:12,000 The PAC is at the heart of the construction of the Union 137 00:08:12,000 --> 00:08:14,000 Because agriculture is a sector 138 00:08:14,000 --> 00:08:16,000 Intimately linked to the economy 139 00:08:16,000 --> 00:08:19,000 Intimately linked to health 140 00:08:19,000 --> 00:08:21,000 Intimately linked to the environment 141 00:08:21,000 --> 00:08:23,000 To the development of regions and territories 142 00:08:23,000 --> 00:08:25,000 As well as to employment 143 00:08:25,000 --> 00:08:27,000 The PAC unites Member States 144 00:08:27,000 --> 00:08:29,000 In pursuit of the same goal 145 00:08:29,000 --> 00:08:31,000 To promote agriculture 146 00:08:31,000 --> 00:08:33,000 At the service of all citizens 147 00:08:49,000 --> 00:08:51,000 Thank you for watching 148 00:08:51,000 --> 00:08:53,000 See you in the next video 149 00:09:19,000 --> 00:09:21,000 Thank you for watching 150 00:09:21,000 --> 00:09:23,000 See you in the next video
