Abstract: The 2014–2020 Common Agricultural Policy provides a more “general” and “more integrated” support, in the sense that a new way of organizing direct payments has been introduced for a “fairer” and “greener” application. Direct payments for the conventional and organic farming system for the production year 2016–2017 refer to the payment schemes that can be accessed by active farmers. In order to demonstrate their degree of influence on incomes obtained from different crops, the constructive normative method and the qualitative analysis of the information on the agricultural policy measures are used. The results obtained show that in the absence of direct payments, a loss of income in crop production may result, loss that is offset by the financial support that significantly contributes to maintaining the cultivated areas into production. The analysis carried out contributes to a better knowledge of the support forms and allows for an overall view in diagnosing the state of the various economic proceses and phenomena that contribute to obtaining agricultural incomes.
