englischThe Single Common Market Organisation Regulation (EC) 1234/2007 (sCMO) brings together in one single document more than 40 separate regulations governing the various agricultural market organisations in the European Union. By that the regulatory scope of the Common Agricultural Policy (CAP) becomes much simpler. Thanks to the Regulation a field of law, so far, in spite of its political and economic importance for Europe, very difficult to access, has become much clearer and transparent.
