Further beef-sector measures are proposed

Speaking at the European Policy Centre, Commissioner Fischler explained how the Commission was proposing to de-couple per head payments from production and replace them with a single income payment per farm, based on historical levels of premia. Comment: This proposal forms part of the European Commission's plans to bring beef into a single de-coupled farm premia scheme, alongside cereals, oilseeds, protein crops and rice. However, with 70% of EU beef still coming from dairy herds, it is difficult to see how this can be achieved without bringing the dairy regime under the same system.
