EU CAP reforms affecting Poland

Overview

In early July 2026 the European Union announced a major reduction in farm subsidies, including ending payments to retired Polish farmers. The policy shift set the stage for national adjustments.

Later in July, Poland issued ministerial notices detailing how the 2023‑2027 Common Agricultural Policy (CAP) framework would be applied. The rules cover rural infrastructure, the “Intelligent Village” initiative, and sector‑specific qualifications such as large‑format ceramic tile installation. At the same time, the Czech Republic expanded its advisory support for farmers under the same CAP period, introducing new planning services, demonstration‑farm schemes, and e‑learning tools with a dedicated budget.

Together, the snapshots trace the move from an EU‑wide subsidy cut to concrete implementation measures by Poland and the Czech Republic to adapt to the reformed CAP.
