Background	The Ministers discuss specific aspects of two proposals which are part of the legislative package for the reform of the common agricultural policy (CAP): - a regulation on support for rural development (15425/11), which covers voluntary measures for rural development, adapted to national and regional specificities, whereby member states draw up and co-finance with the EU multiannual programmes under a common framework. The priorities under this regulation are: fostering knowledge transfer and innovation, enhancing competitiveness, preserving ecosystems, and promoting food chain organisation and risk management, resource efficiency and a shift to a more sustainable agricultural economy, as well as social inclusion, poverty reduction and economic development in rural areas. The debate at the Council meeting will focus on risk management, in particular mutual funds, and the intervention of insurance companies; - a regulation establishing a common organisation of the markets for agricultural products (Single CMO regulation) (15397/2/11), which aims to streamline, expand and simplify current provisions on public intervention, private storage, exceptional or emergency measures and aid to specific sectors as well as to facilitate cooperation through producer and interbranch organisations. The Ministers hold a debate on the exceptional market measures provided for within this framework.
