Agra Europe will be holding a two day seminar entitled “A practical seminar on the Common Agricultural Policy: Understanding the Agricultural Policy in Europe” on the 4 - 5 June 2009, Radisson SAS Portman Hotel London.
According to their newsletter, the seminar gives you a comprehensive - but accessible - introduction to The Common Agricultural Policy, with a focus on all of the CAP’s key policy instruments.
