2025/2052(INI) Own-initiative report First reading

The future of agriculture and the post-2027 common agricultural policy

Parliament sets out its own position on a topic. The resolution is not binding but signals what Parliament wants.

Where it stands: Parliament adopted the text on 10 September 2025. This is its final position on the matter.

  1. Referred to committee 13 March 2025
  2. Committee work Report adopted 7 July 2025
  3. Tabled for plenary 16 July 2025
  4. Plenary vote Adopted 10 September 2025
  5. Parliament’s position Final
How a file moves through Parliament

A file is referred to one lead committee (others may give an opinion). Its rapporteur writes a draft report, committee members table amendments, and the committee votes to adopt the report. The report is then tabled for all MEPs; political groups can table further amendments, which are voted on before the final vote in plenary. The adopted resolution is Parliament’s final position; it is not itself law.
