Ireland split over giving farmers equal share of CAP payments

In Ireland, a storm is brewing over the need to give all farmers an equal slice of EU payments. The Irish Farmers Association (IFA) argues that this risks more farms becoming unviable, while proponents say it is needed to level the playing field for small farms. Convergence is the process to redistribute and flatten the value of Common Agricultural Policy (CAP) payment entitlements. While there is a large focus on external convergence of decoupled direct payments, which aligns all payments between member states, much less attention is devoted to the issue of internal convergence. Internal convergence is designed to even out all payments between farmers within the same member state. This means that all farms, regardless of size or historical entitlements, receive the same basic payment entitlements per hectare.
