What is CMO?

The Common Market Organisation (CMO) is as the first pillar a part of the Common Agricultural Policy (CAP) of the European Union. The CAP has been created in the 1960's of the 20th century as a response to the situation in European countries after World War II.

Agriculture was in a critical situation, with a lack of production and very low income of producers in all sectors of agriculture. One of the tools to improve the situation was the creation of the Common Market Organisation (CMO). CMO was designed to manage the production and trade of most of the EU’s agricultural sectors. The purpose of the CMO was to ensure steady incomes for farmers and a continued supply for European consumers. During the period 1963 – 2007, 21 CMOs for different agricultural sectors were introduced with their own rules.
