Combined with the additional resources allocated last November in response to requests from the European Parliament, the revised proposal not only secures the <strong>current level of CAP funding for the future<\/strong>, but also introduces <strong>new financial resources<\/strong> for the sector.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThis initiative achieves the objective requested by Italian and European farmers, ensuring continuity of funding while strengthening support for agriculture,\u201d the Prime Minister said in a statement.<\/p>\n<p>Meloni described the move as a <strong>positive and significant step forward<\/strong> in the ongoing negotiations that will shape the European Union\u2019s next long-term budget. She emphasized that the decision demonstrates growing support in Brussels for what she called a \u201cline of common sense\u201d promoted by the Italian government \u2014 one that prioritizes the strategic role of agriculture in Europe\u2019s economy, food security, and territorial cohesion.<\/p>\n<p>The Italian government has repeatedly argued that European farmers require stable and adequate funding to cope with rising production costs, climate challenges, and increasing global competition. Meloni noted that the Commission\u2019s revised proposal shows that this position is gaining broader consensus at the EU level.<\/p>\n<p>Negotiations on the new EU budget are expected to intensify in the coming months, with agriculture remaining one of the most closely watched policy areas by member states, farmers\u2019 organizations, and EU institutions alike.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>EU Commission Backs Italy\u2019s Push to Boost Farm Funding, Meloni Welcomes \u20ac45 Billion Move.\u00a0 &nbsp;
