Prospects for Agricultural Markets and Income in the EU 2010-2020

The outlook presented in this publication consist of a set of market and sector income prospects elaborated on the basis of specific assumptions regarding macroeconomic conditions, the agricultural and trade policy environment, weather conditions and international market developments. They are not intended to constitute a forecast of what the future will be, but instead a description of what may happen under a specific set of assumptions and circumstances, which at the time of projections were judged plausible. As such, they should be seen as an analytical tool for medium-term market and policy issues, not as a short-term forecasting tool for monitoring market developments and addressing short-term market issues. This report is based on the information available at the end of September 2010. The changes in legislation proposed or adopted since that date have not been taken into account. Moreover the projections do not take account of any potential outcome of ongoing bilateral/regional/multilateral trade negotiations. The analysis covers the period between 2010 and 2020.
