Two thirds of European Union citizens supported the recent shift in spending under the Common Agricultural Policy, according to the Special Eurobarometer opinion poll (No 221, February 2005). In the first such survey to be carried out in the EU of 25 Member States, there was strong support for the move away from production support towards direct aid to farmers and greater assistance to the overall rural economy. The survey questioned 25,000 people in the 25 Member States between 22 November and 19 December 2004. |
