Résumé : | The European Council of ministers for Agriculture reached a political agreement on the 17th December 2007 on the reform of the Common organisation of the markets of wine. This important political agreement brings to an end the wave of sectoral reforms which had begun in 2003 with arable crops, bovine meat, ovine meat, followed by olive oil, cotton and tobacco in 2004, sugar in 2005 and fruit and vegetables in June 2007. This article deals first of all with the diagnosis, widely shared, of the European wine market and presents the main features of the reform, as much in terms of planting rights as on picking, while looking at chaptalisation amongst other things. It is about a further step towards the liberalisation of the markets - today it is wine like it was sugar yesterday and will be milk tomorrow. Indeed, the Commission will have to present a report on the application of this reform no later than the end of 2012. In 2012 we will have reached the end of the debate on new financial perspective and the common agricultural policy of the next decade, two occasions which already seem to be strengthening an orientation towards the reform of markets that appears to he becoming more irreversible each day. |
