Environmental Effects of Cross-Compliance

• The Statutory Management Requirements within cross-compliance incur low additional costs for farmers whilst the environmental benefits are small. The Good Agricultural and Environmental Conditions provide greater environmental benefits. • The cross-compliance standards are often viewed as complicated and unclear, which has increased the feeling of uncertainty among farmers. Furthermore, the aid deductions which are based on the total amount received by the farmer may, for the same error vary significantly between farmers. • Cross-compliance information and advisory services have increased farmers’ awareness of aid regulations and environmental legislation.
