NFU debate what the CAP will look like after 2014

A Farmers' Union of Wales delegation visiting Brussels in September 2011 to discuss CAP reform met deputy Welsh agriculture minister Alun Davies just before he attended his first EU Agriculture Council meeting as part of the UK ministerial team alongside Defra minister Jim Paice.

Meanwhile the debate about how CAP will look post-2014 dominated the meeting of NFU Cymru council in September 2011, as it discussed a leaked package of proposals for the reform of the CAP.
