The new Common agricultural policy of the European Union as a target guideline of ukrainian land legislation transformation

Abstract

The need for adaptation and improvement of the existing legislation, especially land and agrarian and environmental policy of Ukraine with the legislative norms of the European Union (EU) is determined. The results of previous studies related to the problem of formation and implementation of measures of the Common Agricultural Policy of the EU (CAP) are summarized. It has been researched that at the beginning of the XXI century the priority task of CAP was to provide farmers with an acceptable standard of living, and consumers - quality food products at fair prices. The main goals of the new Common Agricultural Policy, which encompass social, environmental and economic aspects of land use, are considered. It is emphasized that the objectives represent updated or revised proposals submitted by EU member states following comments made by the European Commission on the original proposals in early 2022. Priorities such as: measures to reduce the impact on climate change, effective management of natural resources, conservation of landscapes and biodiversity, highlighted in key comments and proposals, are disclosed and analyzed in more detail. It is marked that not less important is the question of land registration in the EU, which also causes the necessity of land cadaster keeping adaptation in Ukraine.

A Study on Mineral Oil Hydrocarbons (MOH) Contamination in Pig Diets and Its Transfer to Back Fat and Loin Tissues

“…Abbreviations: CP, crude palm oil; COP, crude olive pomace oil; OPA, olive pomace acid oil; MOSH, mineral oil saturated hydrocarbons; MOAH, mineral oil aromatic hydrocarbons. 1 Data are the mean and the standard deviation of two replicate analyses obtained using CyCy as the internal standard. 2 Data are the mean and the standard deviation of two replicate analyses, considering in each case the mean of the different internal standards (5B, 1-MN, 2-MN, and TBB); MOAH n-C 10-16 was lower than the limit of quantification (0.2 mg/kg) for all the feeds.…”

“…Abbreviations: CP, crude palm oil; COP, crude olive pomace oil; OPA, olive pomace acid oil; MOSH, mineral oil saturated hydrocarbons; BCF, bioconcentration factor; NC, not calculated. 1 Data are the mean, obtained using CyCy as the internal standard, of the different experimental replicates of back fat or loin studied for each dietary treatment (n = 2 for back fat and n = 4 for loin). 2 The bioconcentration factor was the ratio between the mean concentration of MOSH in the tissue and that in the feed.…”

“…MOH are considered environmental and processing contaminants, and they can be divided into two groups according to their chemical structure. The first group contains mineral oil-saturated hydrocarbons (MOSH), comprising paraffins (linear and branched alkanes) and naphthenes (alkyl-substituted cyclo-alkanes), whereas the second group contains mineral oil aromatic hydrocarbons (MOAH), which include mono-or polyaromatic compounds with a high Animals 2024, 14, 1450 2 of 16 alkylation degree [1]. Currently, the information available about MOH toxicity is still controversial, but the evidence suggests that MOSH can accumulate in human organs and tissues, and some MOAH can show carcinogenic, genotoxic, and, mutagenic behavior, particularly polyaromatic species with three to seven rings [2][3][4].…”
