Member States are to set up a national reserve, which is to be used to prevent certain tracts of agricultural land from being abandoned and to grant aid to new farmers and to those deemed to be in special circumstances.

The aim of this support is to ensure that older farmers have enough income and can be replaced (provided the holding is profitable) or their land reassigned to non-agricultural uses (e.g. forestry, the creation of ecological reserves, etc.). Farmers who retire early in this way can receive up to €15 000 per year (maximum €150 000 in all) up to the age of 75.
