    Frans Timmermans Cc: Günther Oettinger, Jyrki Katainen, Karmenu Vella and Phil Hogan European Commission Rue de la Loi / Wetstraat 200 1049 Brussels 20th March 2018 Dear First Vice-President Timmermans, We are writing to you as civil society representatives (environmental NGOs, farmers, food movements, and animal welfare groups) regarding the Common Agricultural Policy (CAP) reform, following recent details given in Commission presentations to the Council and the Parliament on its substance, in particular the common EU objectives. 1) We would like to recall that for the next CAP to be truly results-oriented, make effective and efficient use of EU taxpayers’ money, and respond to citizens’ demands to better protect our natural resources, ensure the welfare of farmed animals and ensure many and diversified farms, the EU objectives should be specific, measurable and time-bound so that progress towards them can be properly monitored.1 2) Unfortunately we are very concerned that the objectives will be very general and vague, which will make it very easy for Member States to systematically choose the least ambitious measures without facing adequate monitoring or control—as experienced with the last reform’s ‘greening’, which added complexity and completely failed to address the challenges facing the sector. 3) Furthermore, objectives focussed on increasing production—such as ‘food security’—are not only unjustified in the context of overproduction and overconsumption in Europe, especially of animal products, but also risk undermining other objectives on the long-term resilience of the sector, the environment, animal welfare, climate, human health and fair income for the smallest and most sustainable farms.

  • The Abcds' Transformation: How Far Will Downstream Integration
    June 2019 Unigrains – In Brief The ABCDs’ transformation: how far will downstream integration go? The ABCD's transformation: accelerated pace of deals 60 50 40 30 20 10 0 2007 2008 2009 2010 2011 2012 2013 2014 2015 2016 2017 2018 -10 Number Number acquisitions of cumulated ADM Bunge Cargill LDC Source: Unigrains based on Pitchbook ➢ Looking for lost margins: downstream integration Since the early 2010s, the main international traders in agricultural commodities, Archer Daniel Midland (ADM), Bunge, Cargill and Louis Dreyfus Company (LDC), otherwise known as the ABCDs, have seen their profits fall (cf. In Brief: “International agricultural trading: a model in question”). Their position as intermediaries in the agri-food sector is undermined by a combination of several factors. While they remain essential links in the value chain, given their international footprint and their ability to manage risks, the ABCDs have had to embark on a phase of deep reinvention to restore margins. This transformation translates into ever-increasing downstream integration. It reflects the ABCDs’ attempt to secure outlets for their commodities, position themselves in value-added segments that generate higher margins, and strengthen their pricing power through differentiated products in order to reduce profit volatility. ➢ Strategic options The ABCDs’ investments directly reflect their strategic choices in terms of vertical integration. Over the past few years their average acquisition pace sharply accelerated. • ADM started building up its Nutrition division in 2014 with the acquisition of Brazil’s Wild Flavor (natural ingredients). In 2018, ADM’s Nutrition division accounted for 10% of group operating income, while the contribution of its Origination (upstream) business decreased by half.

With the global competitiveness of the EU being at stake, Germany assumes the Presidency with a renewed sense to drive Europe’s digital future forward. In the upcoming months, the German government’s key priority will be to strengthen the EU’s ‘digi- tal sovereignty’. With this leitmotiv, the Presidency will focus on rolling out a resilient European digital and data infrastructure ecosystem, implement several steps of the EU’s strategy for “A Europe Fit for the Digital Age” and boost competencies in key digital technologies through coordinated R&D and in- vestment efforts. An important challenge will be to ensure effective cross-ministerial coordination on digital policies af- fecting the European Green Deal, health, transport, and consumer protection policies. KEY INITIATIVES AND FILES THE KEY HUB • Strengthen the EU’s digital sovereignty following lessons Peter Altmaier learnt from the COVID-19 pandemic by laying the groundwork • Born in 1958 for the roll out of the European cloud project GAIA-X. • Federal Minister for • Support the implementation of the EU’s strategy for A Economic Affairs and Energy Europe Fit for the Digital Age with a focus on data availabil- ity and security, AI, and digital skills.

  • THE JUNCKER COMMISSION: an Early Assessment
    THE JUNCKER COMMISSION: An Early Assessment John Peterson University of Edinburgh Paper prepared for the 14th Biennial Conference of the EU Studies Association, Boston, 5-7th February 2015 DRAFT: Not for citation without permission Comments welcome [email protected] Abstract This paper offers an early evaluation of the European Commission under the Presidency of Jean-Claude Juncker, following his contested appointment as the so-called Spitzencandidat of the centre-right after the 2014 European Parliament (EP) election. It confronts questions including: What will effect will the manner of Juncker’s appointment have on the perceived legitimacy of the Commission? Will Juncker claim that the strength his mandate gives him license to run a highly Presidential, centralised Commission along the lines of his predecessor, José Manuel Barroso? Will Juncker continue to seek a modest and supportive role for the Commission (as Barroso did), or will his Commission embrace more ambitious new projects or seek to re-energise old ones? What effect will British opposition to Juncker’s appointment have on the United Kingdom’s efforts to renegotiate its status in the EU? The paper draws on a round of interviews with senior Commission officials conducted in early 2015 to try to identify patterns of both continuity and change in the Commission. Its central aim is to assess the meaning of answers to the questions posed above both for the Commission and EU as a whole in the remainder of the decade. What follows is the proverbial ‘thought piece’: an analysis that seeks to provoke debate and pose the right questions about its subject, as opposed to one that offers many answers.

While a scandal usually has negative consequences for the ones being accused of a transgression, political opponents and even media outlets may benefit. Anecdotal evidence suggests that certain scandals could be orchestrated, especially if they are reported right before an election. This study examines the timing of news coverage of political scandals relative to the national election cycle in Germany. Using data from electronic newspaper archives, we document a positive and highly significant relationship between coverage of government scandals and the election cycle. On average, one additional month closer to an election increases the amount of scandal coverage by 1.3%, which is equivalent to an 62% difference in coverage between the first and the last month of a four- year cycle. We provide suggestive evidence that this pattern can be explained by political motives of the actors involved in the production of scandal, rather than business motives by the newspapers.
