A significant part of the current production-linked payments would be transferred to the de-coupled single payment scheme. For olive oil, a specific coupled payment would be maintained.
The proposal takes into account the potential impact of a full decoupling in this sector and in particular the risk that production would be abandoned and of declining competitiveness of rural areas, the Commission said.
