The aim of this paper is to present new CAP solutions for 2014-2020, concerning sustainable development of agriculture. The basis for this research is the papers and reports prepared by the Institute within the framework of the Multi-Annual Programme for 2011-2014. Analysis of these works is complemented by Strategy for Sustainable Development of Rural Areas as well as by report drawn up by the Ministry of Agriculture and Rural Development on direct ayments in the new Financial Perspective. Analysis of the documents allows formulation of new research areas, for the coming years. Generally, there is some progress going on, at least in documents, however, changes are smaller, than it was expected from the first draft of the EU documents. On the other hand, it appears, explicitly, from the documents under scrutiny, that never in the CAP history, such a stress was given to the environmental issues. Financing of agri-environmental programmes also increased considerably. The years to come will show, whether documentary regulations were really implemented.
