Abstract: The Common Agriculture Policy has been modified for the period 2014-2020. The main change relates to environmental protection, more market orientation, ensuring rural development and quality of food. Within the
given period the agriculture sector faces new internal and external challenges and will also encounter opportunities. The paper analyses both internal and external factors ahead. Among the internal factors, it
encounters issues such as market situation, especially in the dairy and sugar sectors in relation to the end of the quota regime,
simplification of rules for farmers and public authorities, competiveness, rural development, job creation, functioning of the food
chain and the situation of young farmers. Among external factors the paper deals with trade agreements under negotiation, the link
between agriculture and climate and global food security.
Keywords: CAP, market support, regulatory simplification, greening, trade relations, climate change
