Justification

Demographic decline and population ageing are among the most significant long-term challenges facing many Member States and regions.

Justification

Tourism, active tourism and agrotourism can make a significant contribution to social cohesion by creating economic opportunities, supporting local communities and improving the quality of life in rural and less-developed regions. They generate employment, support small and family-owned businesses, promote local traditions and cultural heritage, and help reduce territorial disparities. In particular, active tourism and agrotourism encourage sustainable forms of development, strengthen community engagement and provide additional sources of income in areas affected by demographic decline or limited economic opportunities. Supporting these sectors therefore contributes to more resilient, inclusive and cohesive societies across the Union.

Justification

Agriculture, fisheries and rural communities play a fundamental role in ensuring food security, territorial cohesion and balanced regional development across the Union. The amendment clarifies the objective by explicitly recognising the importance of maintaining vibrant rural areas, supporting economic activity and preserving the social fabric of rural and coastalregions. It also better reflects the Treaty objective of reducing territorial disparities and promoting balanced development.

Or. en

Justification

The resilience, competitiveness and sustainability of the Union agri-food sector depend on the proper functioning of the entire value chain, including food-processing activities. Investments in food-processing enterprises contribute directly to food security, rural employment, local value creation and the economic viability of agricultural production. Maintaining support for food-processing investments under the CAP chapter is therefore essential to preserve an integrated agri-food policy framework and to avoid fragmentation of support across different instruments of the National and Regional Partnership Plans.

Or. en

Justification

To guarantee a true level playing field and uphold the core principles of equity and solidarity within the single market, full external convergence of direct payments must be achieved immediately. The historical disparities in support levels per hectare between Member States distort competition, disadvantage farmers in specific regions, and undermine the commonality of the CAP. Equal conditions and uniform support are essential to strengthen the economic resilience of all European farmers, ensuring that everyone faces the same rigorous Union-wide environmental, climate, and regulatory standards with equitable financial backing.

Or. en

Justification

A fair and stable income is the precondition for the survival of family farming and for generational renewal. Public support should be directed primarily to active, small and medium-sized farmers rather than concentrated among the largest landholders. Strengthening farmers' position in the value chain, tackling unfair trading practices and ensuring producer prices cover the cost of sustainable production protects both incomes and the long-term viability of the sector.

Or. en

Justification

The development of genuine European food and economic sovereignty, capable of ensuring real long-term resilience and driving a pragmatic ecological transition towards decarbonisation, cannot be achieved without recognising the central role of the agricultural sector. This objective requires the strategic capacity to mobilise and enhance greater domestic agricultural production within the European Union, increasing the sustainability of the EU’s economic system as a whole without disadvantaging European producers. To address the challenges of food security and decarbonisation, it is essential to expand the EU’s productive capacity in order to avoid an ever-growing dependence on imports from third countries.

Proposal for a regulation

Article 3 – paragraph 1 – point d – point v

Text proposed by the CommissionAmendment
(v) enhancing sustainable agriculture and forestry management practices to promote resilient climate action, provision of multiple ecosystem services, supporting efficient water management, quality and resilience, the implementation of nature-based solutions, strengthening sustainable development, environmental protection, enhancing the conservation and restoration of biodiversity, soil and natural resources, and improving animal welfare.(v) enhancing sustainable agriculture and forestry management practices to promote resilient climate mitigation and adaptation action, including methane emissions reductions as part of the prevention-first principle, provision of multiple ecosystem services, supporting efficient water management, quality and resilience, the implementation of nature-based solutions, strengthening sustainable development, environmental protection, enhancing the conservation and restoration of biodiversity, soil and natural resources, and improving animal welfare in transition towards the Five Domain model.

Or. en

Justification

Climate mitigation must be a central part of the NRPP, alongside adaptation, if the programme is to support real long-term resilience. Methane reduction is a particularly effective near-term climate measure, given its high warming impact and shorter atmospheric lifetime, and is fully aligned with the EU’s international commitments under the Global Methane Pledge. Referring to the Five Domain model gives a clear and well-established direction for animal welfare funding, reflecting the Strategic Dialogue on the Future of Agriculture.

Or. en

Justification

The amendment introduces a dedicated objective on territorial resilience and cohesion, reflecting the Treaty objective of reducing regional disparities and promoting balanced development across the Union. Demographic decline, territorial inequalities, industrial transformation and unequal access to services increasingly affect the development prospects of many regions. Establishing a distinct territorial objective ensures that regional development, demographic challenges and place-based approaches remain central elements of Union investment policy and are not overshadowed by sectoral priorities. It also strengthens synergies between competitiveness and cohesion objectives while ensuring balanced territorial development across all regions.

1. Support under this Regulation shall primarily be granted to micro, small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs), in particular for start-up and scale-ups, as defined in Commission Recommendation 2003/361/EC, as well as to cooperatives and social economy enterprises where they contribute to the objectives of this Regulation.
2. Support under this Regulation shall prioritise operations that contribute to developing, producing, manufacturing, deploying, operating, maintaining, repairing, reusing or recycling within the Union the technologies, infrastructure, products, services and value chains necessary to achieve the objectives of this Regulation, in accordance with Union law and the Union’s international commitments.
3. Support under this Regulation shall not contribute to increasing the Union’s strategic dependencies, undermining existing production capacities or employment within the Union, or granting undue advantages to dominant undertakings.
4. By way of derogation from paragraph 1, support may also be granted to enterprises other than SMEs, including small mid-cap and large enterprises, where such support is necessary to contribute to the objectives of this Regulation and is duly justified in the relevant national or regional plan.
5. By way of derogation from paragraph 1, productive investments in enterprises other than SMEs may also be supported:
i. when they involve meaningful cooperation with SMEs, cooperatives, social economy actors or research organisations in research and innovation activities;
ii. where they primarily support energy efficiency measures, renewable energy, circular economy, industrial decarbonisation, pollution reduction, climate adaptation or the protection and restoration of biodiversity;
iii. when they are made in small mid-cap and mid-cap companies as defined in points (6) and (7) of Article 2 of Regulation (EU) 2015/1017 of the European Parliament and the Council (21) through financial instruments;
iv. when they are made in small mid-cap companies in research and innovation activities supported under point (a)(i) of the first subparagraph of Article 3(1);
v. where they are necessary for the implementation of projects contributing to the objectives of ERDF and Cohesion Fund, as well for projects related to military mobility, economic, social and territorial cohesion, including transport, environmental or digital infrastructure;
6. Support to enterprises other than SMEs shall be subject to a specific justification in the relevant National and Regional Partnership Plan. That justification shall demonstrate:
i. why the objective pursued cannot be adequately achieved through support to SMEs, cooperatives or social economy enterprises alone;
ii. how the support contributes to the objectives of this Regulation;
iii. how the support contributes to European value creation, quality employment, territorial cohesion and the reduction of strategic dependencies;
iv. the expected benefits for SMEs, workers and the territories concerned;
v. the safeguards in place to avoid market concentration, unfair competition, relocation of activities outside the Union or undue advantages to dominant undertakings.
7. Where support under this Regulation involves public procurement, concession contracts, calls for proposals or financial instruments, Member States shall make full use of social, environmental, resilience, security of supply, reciprocity and European added-value criteria, in accordance with Union law and the Union’s international commitments. Procurement procedures shall be in principle designed to encourage competitive applications by start-ups and scale-ups, including by using tender procedures and quotas to foster innovative solutions.
8. Member States shall publish information on support granted to enterprises other than SMEs, including the final beneficiary, the amount of support, the objective pursued, the location of the operation and the justification referred to in paragraph 6.
