Zła passa dla europejskiego rolnictwa trwa: Komisja przyznaje Australii nowe koncesje taryfowe w wrażliwych sektorach.

Zawarcie umowy o wolnym handlu między UE a Australią pod koniec marca w Canberze budzi poważne obawy wśród europejskich rolników, którzy po raz kolejny są wykorzystywani jako karta przetargowa w realizacji szerszych celów handlowych i politycznych UE. Odzwierciedla to podejście, które może odpowiadać na krótkoterminowe potrzeby, ale którego średnioterminowe konsekwencje okażą się nie do utrzymania dla wielu wrażliwych sektorów rolnych.

Nasza wizja - We Farm 4 EU

Nadchodząca dekada będzie kluczowa dla rolnictwa UE. Stoi przed nami wiele wyzwań. Będziemy musieli wziąć udział w trudnych dyskusjach na temat zastępowalności pokoleń, niskich dochodów gospodarstw, niestabilności rynku oraz zmian klimatu. Jako europejscy rolnicy i spółdzielnie mamy świadomość trudności tych kwestii i jesteśmy gotowi je podjąć oraz stawić czoła zachodzącym zmianom. Staramy się stworzyć rolnictwo, jakiego oczekują i wymagają nasi współobywatele; rolnictwo, które zapewni wysoki poziom bezpieczeństwa żywnościowego, wysokie standardy jakości, dobrostanu, zrównoważoności oraz ochrony środowiska naturalnego. Zobowiązaliśmy się do tego wobec Europy! W zamian oczekujemy od jej przywódców ram politycznych, które będą budować naszą przyszłość.

Bad streak continues for European agriculture: Commission grants new tariff concessions to Australia in sensitive sectors

The early morning announcement of the conclusion of the EU-Australia Free Trade Agreement in Canberra by European Commission President von der Leyen and Australian Prime Minister Albanese raises multiple and strong concerns for European agriculture, which is clearly and once again the bargaining chip of the EU strategy to secure broader trade and political objectives. A vision that responds to the emergencies of the moment, but whose medium-term consequences will be unsustainable for many sensitive farming sectors.

EU–Australia FTA: agriculture cannot afford to pay the price of a new political deal

Without rapid corrective measures, rice production has no future in Europe.

European rice producers and the wider supply chain are raising serious concerns about the growing imbalance affecting the sector. European rice farming has entered a phase of serious crisis. Recent market developments highlight increasing pressure on European rice farming, driven by rising production costs, strict regulatory requirements and a significant increase in imports entering the EU market.

Wool is not waste, it’s a resource! Time for the EU to remove legal barriers and boost the sector

Copa and Cogeca have today published a new position paper on the valorisation of wool — a natural material with numerous valuable qualities. The organisations highlight that wool is increasingly treated as a burden, despite clear opportunities for its use. The paper calls on EU policymakers to remove regulatory barriers that currently prevent wool from being fully exploited as a sustainable, circular, and renewable agricultural resource.

Mercosur Agreement provisional application: a further blow to Europe’s agriculture

The announcement this Friday of the European Commission’s intention to proceed with the provisional application of the EU-Mercosur Free Trade Agreement, despite increasingly worrying recent developments, could only be perceived by the farming sector, gathered today in Brussels at the Praesidia of Copa and Cogeca, as a disregard for the well-founded concerns we have been raising for years alongside environmental organisations, labour unions, and consumer groups regarding the impacts of this agreement.

CBAM enforcement sparks 80% drop in fertiliser imports: another farming crisis looms?

The latest figures from the European Commission confirm a dramatic and unprecedented collapse in EU nitrogen fertiliser imports following the entry into force of the Carbon Border Adjustment Mechanism (CBAM). In January 2026, the EU imported only 179,877 tonnes of nitrogen fertilisers, compared with 1,183,728 tonnes in January 2025 . Imports have therefore fallen to less than 16% of their usual level, a harsh reality that is now knocking at the EU’s door.

European Court of Auditors confirms Copa and Cogeca’s alarm over future CAP financial design

The opinion published yesterday afternoon by the European Court of Auditors (ECA) on the future design and implementation of the Common Agricultural Policy (CAP) is seen by Copa and Cogeca as an institutional confirmation of the sector’s long-standing concerns, which prompted major farming protests. The auditors’ opinion, specifically requested by the European Parliament and Council is unequivocal: the Commission’s plan raises serious issues, from the erosion of the CAP’s common nature under the proposed Single Fund approach to the uncertainties and complexities it will create for farmers.

GSP Regulation, Copa and Cogeca deplores COM INTA vote that falls short of protecting EU rice sector from devastating import surges

COM INTA approved the provisional agreement for the GSP Regulation as was negotiated in trilogues in December 2025. Copa and Cogeca strongly regrets the approval of this agreement as it stands. We firmly believe that an automatic safeguard for rice is necessary to protect such a sensitive sector. Nevertheless, at their current levels the thresholds and surge quantities agreed would only allow the mechanism to activate once great damage has already been done.

China’s unfair tariffs on EU dairy products are unjustified retaliation!

China has announced provisional duties of 21.9% to 42.7% on EU dairy products, effective on December 23, following an anti-subsidy probe that reeks of political retaliation. Since the EU launched its anti-subsidy investigation into Chinese electric vehicles in 2023, Beijing has systematically targeted EU key agricultural exports: brandy, pork, and now dairy. This decision is not just an attack on our dairy sector, it’s an attack on the livelihoods of thousands of European farmers who work tirelessly to produce high-quality, sustainable food and an attack on our Common Agriculture Policy, which is fully compliant with WTO rules!
