GREEN ARCHITECTURE OF CAP OF THE EU: LANDMARKS FOR DEVELOPMENT DURING THE POST-WAR RECONSTRUCTION OF UKRAINE

Abstract

Such a new concept in the Ukrainian scientific space as “green architecture of agrarian development” has been revealed, which is a complex of agroecological and climate policies, instruments, institutions, management practices, regulation, and agriculture management. The innovations of the green architecture of the reformed CAP of the EU in the program period of 2023—2027 were studied, namely: increased stipulation of financial support for farmers on their compliance with basic ecological and climate standards of management, voluntary participation in eco-schemes, decentralization of strategic planning with the development of national CAP plans by member countries following the target guidelines of the EU and taking into account the specifics of agriculture in the countries. The tools for the implementation of innovations are summarized: administration and stimulation, financial support for the basic income of farmers for sustainable development “in a package” with compliance with environmental requirements, in particular, and rewards for the implementation of environmental and climate actions. Proposals for the development of the green architecture of the national agricultural policy and practice during the post-war reconstruction, taking into account the innovations of CAP of the EU, are substantiated, i.e., the improvement of the national agricultural policy from the standpoint of ensuring sustainable development, balancing productivism and the green course, implementing the eco-conditionality of providing budget funds to support agricultural producers under any state programs, the initiation of the development of a national strategic plan following the guidelines of CAP of the EU, compliance with the green course of agricultural development, which will allow attracting financial support from the world community for recovery. Since ecological and climatic priorities are the main element of the modern multifunctional paradigm of agricultural development, which legitimizes the financial support of agricultural producers, it is necessary to introduce the principles of the EGD and CAP of the EU into agricultural policy and practice as soon as possible, as well as to improve the level of competence and readiness of domestic farmers to implement ecological - climate measures in Ukraine.
