Ownership: Co-ownership (EU & third parties)
Contribution Details: CAPRI was used to assess the following policy impacts as defined in the Better Regulation Toolbox: Competition, Prices, quality, availability or choice of consumer goods and services, International legal commitments, Goods traded with developing countries, Emission of greenhouse gases, Ability to adapt to climate change, Change in land use.
CAPRI - Common Agricultural Policy Regional Impact Analysis
Refer to Supporting Study:
Role: run for Supporting Study
Run by: European Commission
Ownership: Co-ownership (EU & third parties)
Supporting Studies
An economic assessment of GHG mitigation policy options for EU agriculture (EcAMPA 2)
Led by: AGRI
Models: CAPRI
Role of CAPRI: The model endogenously calculates greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions for the major non-CO2 sources in agriculture and, therefore, can analyse the effects of changes in policies and the market environment on GHG emissions.
