European Court of Auditors (ECA) will release an audit report this autumn assessing how EU support helps fruit and vegetable producer organisations strengthen their market position. The review looks at operational programmes run by about 1,500 recognised organisations that represent over 187,000 growers across the EU, and examines how national and EU rules influence membership attractiveness. Auditors visited organisations in Spain, France, Italy and Poland and analysed national evaluation reports from Belgium, Czechia, Germany and the Netherlands to gauge long‑term effects. The audit comes as discussions on the next Common Agricultural Policy and the 2028‑2034 budget are underway, with stakeholders debating ways to boost farmer competitiveness. The report, available on the ECA website, aims to determine whether cooperation among growers can secure a stronger future.
