ölabweisende

"Ölabweisende" is a term used in the context of the European Union's Common Agricultural Policy (CAP) to refer to farmers who are not eligible to receive direct payments from the EU. These payments are typically based on the area of land under agricultural use, and the eligibility criteria can vary depending on the specific CAP reform in place.

Farmers may become "ölabweisende" for several reasons. One common reason is that they have exceeded the maximum area size allowed for direct payments. In some CAP reforms, there is a cap on the area of land that can receive direct payments, and farmers who exceed this cap may become "ölabweisende". Another reason is that the farmer's land is not considered to be under agricultural use, which can happen if the land is used for non-agricultural purposes or if it is not properly maintained.

Being "ölabweisende" can have significant implications for farmers. They may not be eligible to receive direct payments, which can be a significant source of income for many farmers. Additionally, they may face difficulties in accessing other forms of support from the EU, such as rural development funding.

The term "ölabweisende" is often used in a derogatory manner, but it is important to note that it is simply a description of a particular status under the CAP. The term does not imply any judgment on the farmer's actions or the quality of their farming practices.
