This volume covers an impressively wide ground of issues related to
(and originating from) the EU's Common Agricultural Policy, from
both a domestic and an international perspective. Legal, economic
and political matters are treated by top-class scholars. Each
individual chapter is worth reading, and collectively they
constitute a treasure chest of highly valuable insights into the
operation and deficits of the CAP.' - Stefan Tangermann, former
OECD Director for Trade and AgricultureFollowing the conclusion of
the latest round of reforms to the Common Agricultural Policy (CAP)
in 2013, the Research Handbook on EU Agriculture Law provides an
up-to-date discussion of these reforms and the changing landscape
in which the CAP now operates. Adopting an interdisciplinary
approach, and with international contributors from across Europe
and the United States, the Handbook commences with analyses of the
legal instruments which implement the reformed CAP, before moving
on to consider questions of land use, the role of agriculture
within the wider food chain and the international dimension. In
these contexts, particular issues identified include: the
environmental impact of past, present and future farming practices;
the ability of the food chain to accommodate consumer preferences
and scientific innovation; and the hurdles to be cleared before
international consensus can be reached on a whole range of
agricultural imperatives. As well as providing a state-of-the-art
point of reference for academics, this comprehensive book will be
of great interest to students, scholars and policymakers dealing
with these new challenges faced by agriculture in the EU.
