What changed between the adopted text of 8 Oct 2025 and the adopted text of 16 Dec 2025

Removed:Recital 15: (15) Article 19 of Regulation (EU) 2021/2115 allows Member States to retain up to 3 % of the direct payments to be paid to a farmer to support the farmers’ contribution to a risk management tool. A Member State deciding to make use of this option had to apply it to all beneficiaries of direct payments in a given year. Experience shows that only very few Member States make use of this option. Discussions with the Member States have shown that an obstacle to the implementation of this provision is the lack of risk management tools, whether set up by Member States or available through private insurance, available for all farmers receiving direct payments. In order to increase the uptake and use of the possibility provided for in Article 19 of that Regulation, it is necessary to make its implementation more flexible and to adapt it to the existing management tools in Member States. As a result of this amendment, Member States should also be able to retain up to 3 % of direct payments to be paid to those farmers only for whom risk management schemes exist in a given year.

Removed:Recital 21: deleted

Removed:Recital 33: (33) In order to efficiently support farmers whose production was damaged by natural disasters, adverse climatic events or other catastrophic events, Member States should be able to plan crisis payments through rural development interventions. Such types of support should offer Member States sufficient flexibility in planning the interventions. In order to ensure sound financial management of the Union funds, Member States should ensure that the total compensation received by the farmer accumulated with other forms of Union or nationally funded support (including additional national financing), private insurance or other risk management schemes does not lead to overcompensation or double-funding.

Removed:Recital 40: (40) Article 86(2) and (3) of Regulation (EU) 2021/2115 lays down rules on the eligibility of expenditure resulting from amendments of CAP Strategic Plans for contribution from the EAGF and the EAFRD, respectively. To simplify the rules on eligibility of expenditure, to improve synergies between the EAGF and the EAFRD and to increase the flexibility for the Member States to determine the dates of effect of the EAGF-related amendments of CAP Strategic Plans, it is appropriate to allow the eligibility of expenditure resulting from an approved strategic amendment of a CAP Strategic Plan for EAGF contribution from the date of effect of the amendment set by the Member State concerned in accordance with Article 119(8) of that Regulation, but not earlier than from the date of submission to the Commission of the request for amendment. For other amendments of CAP Strategic Plans related to the EAGF, the expenditure should be eligible for contribution from the EAGF from the date of notification of the amendment to the Commission, as laid down in Article 119(9) of Regulation (EU) 2021/2115, as amended by this Regulation.

Removed:Recital 41: (41) For the purpose of ensuring adequate financing for the new type of intervention for crisis payments to farmers following natural disasters, adverse climatic events or catastrophic events referred to in Article 78a of Regulation (EU) 2021/2115, Member States should be able to reserve a certain share of EAFRD funding for this type of intervention. However, with a view of ensuring that sufficient financing remains available to deliver on the other CAP priorities, this share should be limited to a maximum annual amount available per Member State corresponding to 3 % of the total of EAFRD funding per year.

Added:P10_TC1-COD(2025)0236

Removed:Recital 42: (42) Due to their special nature, the new types of intervention for crisis payments to farmers under rural development referred to in Article 78a of Regulation (EU) 2021/2115 should be exempt from the obligation to contribute to the result indicators listed in Annex I to that Regulation.

Added:Position of the European Parliament adopted at first reading on 16 December 2025 with a view to the adoption of Regulation (EU) 2025/… of the European Parliament and of the Council amending Regulation (EU) 2021/2115 as regards the conditionality system, types of intervention in the form of direct payment, types of intervention in certain sectors and rural development and annual performance reports and Regulation (EU) 2021/2116 as regards suspensions of payments, annual performance clearance and controls and penalties

Removed:Recital 43: deleted

Added:(As an agreement was reached between Parliament and Council, Parliament's position corresponds to the final legislative act, Regulation (EU) 2025/2649.)

Removed:Recital 44: (44) Article 119(4) of Regulation (EU) 2021/2115 provides for the approval by the Commission of requests for amendments of CAP Strategic Plans submitted by Member States. Article 119(9) of that Regulation enables Member States to make and apply modifications of CAP Strategic plans related to the interventions referred to in Title III, Chapter IV, of that Regulation, which are approved by the Commission together with the next request for amendment. Experience has shown that the amendments of CAP Strategic Plans often contain numerous technical elements that render them complex, onerous for Member States, and result in delays in the approval procedures although the strategic orientation of the Plans remain unchanged. This interferes with timely and effective adaptation of CAP Strategic Plans to changing economic reality and needs of farmers and other beneficiaries in Member States and negatively impacts the implementation of those Plans. To simplify and improve the efficiency of amendment procedures, in particular regarding elements of the CAP Strategic Plans that are not of strategic nature, approval by the Commission should be required only for strategic amendments of CAP Strategic Plans. For this purpose, strategic amendments should be defined in Regulation (EU) 2021/2115 as amendments of important elements of the CAP Strategic Plans that significantly impact the strategy and intervention logic of those plans, including transfers of financial allocations between the EAFRD an…

Removed:Recital 53: deleted

Removed:Recital 55: (55) Annex I to Regulation (EU) 2021/2115 sets out impact, result and output indicators pursuant to Article 7 of that Regulation. The table ‘Annual performance clearance – OUTPUT’ in Annex I to that Regulation should be replaced to introduce output indicators linked with the newly introduced type of intervention and the amended types of intervention and to take into account the deletion by this Regulation of the annual performance clearance provided for in Article 54 of Regulation (EU) 2021/2116.

Removed:Recital 56: (56) Annex II to Regulation (EU) 2021/2115 lists the relevant paragraphs of Annex 2 to the WTO Agreement on Agriculture (‘Green Box’) for each type of intervention of that Regulation. The newly introduced type of intervention for crisis payments to farmers under rural development referred to in Article 78a of Regulation (EU) 2021/2115 should therefore be included in that Annex.

It may include other species, such as shrubs or trees, which can be grazed and, where Member States so decide, other species such as shrubs or trees which produce animal feed, provided that the grasses and other herbaceous forage remain predominant. / Member States may also decide to consider as permanent grassland either: / (a) land that has not been included in the crop rotation of the holding and has not been ploughed, tilled or reseeded with different types of grasses or other herbaceous forage for a period of seven years or more; or / (b) land that was not classified as arable land as of 1 January 2023, allowing land that held arable status on that date to retain it permanently, even if temporarily used for grasses or other herbaceous forage. / Where Member States opt for the cut-off date approach, they may decide that such temporary use shall not result in reclassification as permanent grassland, and that ploughing or reseeding shall not be required to maintain its arable status.
