Abstract
This study focuses on the problems affecting the European Community's Common Agricultural Policy (CAP) and assesses its ability to reform that policy. This study recognizes that the CAP, although it is only a small part of the Community's overall effort, is an important yardstick of the EC's success as a supranational body. Several of the key judgements may appear self-evident to a student of agro-economics, but the importance of agro-politics within the European Community has probably been underestimated in previous studies.
