The European Union spends €55 billion a year on farm subsidies. Until recently the question of where the money goes was a closely-guarded secret. But thanks to a campaign by journalists, researchers and computer programmers, European taxpayers now have the right to know how their tax money is spent. This short film tells the story of farmsubsidy.org.

While there is some discretion for certain parts of the CAP (e.g. rural development / conservation), the rules for the vast majority of farm subsidies are agreed at an EU level in Brussels - by the Commission and the Council. If the Lisbon Treaty comes into force, the Parliament will join the decision-making process.
