Farm level modelling of CAP: a methodological overview [Modélisation de la PAC au niveau de l'exploitation: un aperçu méthodologique]

This report constitutes a comprehensive overview of the state of approaches and modelling platforms currently employed for micro-level policy analysis at farm-level, representing a specific response to, and consideration of, recent policy developments within the evolving CAP context. Taking into consideration the increasing need for more targeted impact analysis of new policy instruments, and subsequent scenario assessments, the JRC, in collaboration with DG-Agriculture and Rural Development organized a technical workshop on "Developments and Prospects of Farm Level Modelling for post 2013 CAP impact analysis", held between the 6th and 7th June 2012 in Brussels. Produced in conjunction with eminent (EU and international) experts, this report constitutes a comprehensive synthesis of that workshop.
