Evaluation of the implementation of the Farm Advisory System

The evaluation analyses the effectiveness and the efficiency of the implementation of the Farm Advisory System (FAS) with respect to achieving the objectives laid down in Council Regulation n°1782/2003. The FAS aims at raising awareness among farmers about cross-compliance requirements (i.e. requirements in terms of environment, public, animal and vegetal health, animal welfare and good agricultural and environmental condition (GAEC)). It aims also at an assessment of the relevance of the instrument and its coherence with other measures for achieving the objectives of the CAP and other broader Community objectives. More specifically, the first part provides a description of the establishment and implementation of the FAS in the 27 Member States including a typology of the approaches to implementation. The second part provides answers to a set of evaluation questions as well as conclusions and recommendations based on the findings.
