The objectives of the common agricultural policy of the EU include the stabilisation of the price level of agricultural products. This takes place through the market support and intervention systems. Agricultural products are purchased to intervention stocks, while various kinds of market supports promote the export of agricultural products to third countries and their consumption within the EU.
