Thesis title: “Why do farmers fail to comply with the employment standards of the Social Conditionality?” – Individuazione e classificazione delle motivazioni che soggiacciono alla scelta degli agricoltori italiani di aderire o meno agli standard occupazionali previsti dalla nuova Condizionalità sociale, introdotta con la programmazione PAC 2023-2027

I graduated with a degree in sustainable rural development from the Department of Agricultural Sciences in Perugia. For a period, I was a research fellow at CREA (Rome) on two different topics: production chains in Italian penal colonies (Social Farming in prison) and the role of short supply chains in the European agri-food sector. Current research issue: social conditionality in the new CAP 2023-2027 programming and related transaction costs for farmers.

Why do farmers fail to comply with the employment standards of the Social Conditionality?
The agricultural labor market in Italy is affected by irregular work and illegal labor recruitment. Work in the fields, with less and less family labor involved, is often a source of exploitation and abuse of power at the hands of agricultural entrepreneurs. With the new 2023-2027 CAP programming, so-called “social conditionality” was introduced, which requires the respect of three European regulations in force as a condition for the achievement of income support (first pillar) and payments related to environmental-climate commitments, natural constraints or specific territorial disadvantages (second pillar).
The measure provides that if the authorities in charge of controls (National Labor Inspectorate; Fire Brigade; Local Health Authorities) find anomalies in the treatment of employees, they shall promptly notify the paying agency, which is “AGEA” for Italy. The new cross-compliance leverages the CAP financing to discourage bad entrepreneurs’ practices.
Previous studies have already shown how CAP cross-compliance (so far agro-environmental) entails such financial penalties, compared to the direct costs of alignment, that farmers have to adapt. Indeed, there is a large branch of scientific research that investigates farmers’ motivations to respect the rules, in terms of values, psychological attitudes and capability to comply. This Ph.D. project intends to contribute to this topic, with reference to compliance motivations for employment standards.
