Popis: The new rural strategies taking place in the European Union (EU) , having eradicated the philosophy behind the creation of the Common Agricultural Policy (CAP) are creating genuine territorial disarray in production terms in a situation that has been developing for some time since its reform was implemented. The discourse on the environment and rural development as part of community policy for the immediate future are no more than a worn-out disguise which is becoming unable to conceal the wave of liberalisation sweeping agricultural markets and the selection and specialisation of more competitive operations, abandoning family production units in its wake. All of this is accompanied by concentration of production in the most profitable regions and the clear marginalisation of less favourable areas.
