Research evidence from a range of recent projects at Ecologic Institute shows that the Common Agricultural Policy (CAP) is only partially effective in delivering environmental and climate objectives in practice. This underperformance is not due to a lack of available instruments, but to persistent weaknesses in the delivery model, which limit the translation of policy objectives into measurable outcomes.
