This document explains the steps we are taking, throughout 2014, to implement the new Common Agricultural Policy (CAP) schemes which will start in 2015.

It summarises some of the key activities, and shows how they fit together. It will mainly be of interest to farming industry representatives, and will help them share this information with their customers. The timeline includes the activities planned for the introduction of the new online services, as well as direct payments (Pillar 1) and the Rural Development Programme (Pillar 2).

The timeline (last updated 14 April 2014) will be reviewed regularly throughout 2014 as the CAP schemes are developed.

This document has been designed to print on A3 paper.
