The Executive Board of the European Beekeeping Association (EBA) has approved and endorsed a letter addressed to the European Commission, the European Parliament, and the AGRI Committee, expressing strong opposition to the potential abolition of the special beekeeping envelope within the new Common Agricultural Policy for 2028–2034.
In the letter, EBA highlights the crucial importance of maintaining dedicated support for the beekeeping sector, stressing that without beekeepers there are no bees, and without bees there is no pollination or food security. The Association calls on EU institutions to preserve and strengthen the beekeeping envelope and to increase funding for the protection of bees and beekeeping across Europe.
