Main results of the Council:

On agriculture, the Council held a debate on the proposals for the direct payments regulation, the single common market organisation (CMO) regulation, the rural development regulation and the horizontal regulation in the context of the reform of the common agricultural policy (CAP reform).

The Council agreed a number of adjustments to the Presidency's negotiating mandate of last March, with a view to reaching a political agreement with the other EU institutions on the whole CAP reform package.
