CAP aids were created by the European Union in 1962 to help the agricultural sector, which had been depleted by the war. Today, among its objectives, is to guarantee a reasonable standard of living for farmers, improve the productivity of the agricultural sector (and the supply of food to the population) and, in addition, seek to protect the environment (and natural resources).
