The EU's Common Agricultural Policy is widely reviled for damaging the livelihoods of the world's poorest farmers. But Andreas Schneider of the Centre for European Policy Studies in argues that the developing countries' problems stem from structural weaknesses and internal policy shortcomings, and that these should be the targets of reform. Europe's common agricultural policy, the CAP, is widely criticised for blocking development in poorer countries, and it's a view frequently heard from NGO and the developing countries themselves. It's also probably one of the factors in the likely collapse of the WTO's Doha Development Round of international trade negotiations. But what lies behind the claim? Is it mainly rhetoric, or are there hard facts behind it? I would argue that the EU's agricultural policy is often wrongly criticised for hindering development, and that instead it is the lack of local investment and the developing countries' own poor farm business infrastructure that are blocking their growth and economic development.
