Executive powers of the European management in the field of the common agricultural policy

Abstract

The 2013 Reform has adapted the implementation of the Common Agricultural Policy (CAP) to the new system of sources introduced by the Treaty on the Functioning of the European Union with regard to both the delegated and the implementation acts. This constitutes a paradigmatic use of this new typology of acts There are, nevertheless, problems difficult to explain, such as the distinction between delegated acts and normative implementation acts within the executive normative acts. These executive powers are present in all the CAP aspects: common organization of the markets in agricultural products, regulation on the CAP financing, management and monitoring, ETC. Finally, it is important to emphasize the complex conciliation between the CAP and the Competition Policy, due to the mechanisms of administrative intervention that the CAP implies.
