The article discusses the impact of the Common Agricultural Policy (CAP) on British livestock farmers. Issues mentioned include the United Kingdom's (UK) CAP direct payment budget of €25.1 billion being divided between England, Scotland, Wales, and Northern Ireland, the need for Scotland, Wales, and Northern Ireland to shift from historic payments to a flat-rate system, and the need for farmers to follow new environmental regulations in 2014.
