"At the EU level, direct payments represent on average 30% of agricultural income. They provide farmers with a steady income and thus help to maintain agricultural production throughout the EU. They ensure the long-term survival of farmers and mitigate the negative consequences of price fluctuations or crop failures."
"Between 2021 and 2024, Member States allocated over €18 billion in State aid to the agricultural sector, representing no less than 11% of the total aid under the first pillar of the CAP — a proportion that rises to 14% when focusing solely on the 2021-2023 period."

- The data for 2024 only include aid referenced before 8 November. As a result, the proportion of aid in relation to CAP aid is underestimated.
- Absence of certain national data: Poland, Spain, Romania and Slovenia do not use the Commission’s database, but their own national transparency registers. Poland and Spain are among the countries that have heavily subsidised their agricultural sector through State aid. According to the State Aid Scoreboard (the European Commission’s reference tool for monitoring State aid), Spain and Poland allocated €1.97 billion and €1.88 billion respectively in State aid to their agricultural sectors over the period 2021-2022.
The Common Agricultural Policy is funded through the EU budget. Under the EU's budget for 2021-2027, €386.6 billion has been set aside for farming. It is divided into two parts:
- €291.1 billion for the European Agricultural Guarantee Fund, which provides income support for farmers
- €95.5 billion for the European Agricultural Fund for Rural Development, which includes funding for rural areas, climate action and the management of natural resources.
