More sustainable and resilient food system!

The Farm to Fork Strategy is a comprehensive plan that aims to transform the EU's food system by making it more sustainable and resilient. The strategy covers the entire food chain, from production to processing to consumption.

The strategy sets out a number of targets for the EU, including:

• Reduce the use of pesticides by 50% by 2030. Pesticides are a major source of pollution and they can harm human health. Reducing the use of pesticides will help to protect the environment and human health.
• Reduce the use of fertilizers by 20% by 2030. Fertilizers can pollute water and contribute to climate change. Reducing the use of fertilizers will help to protect the environment and mitigate climate change.
• Increase the area of organic farming to 25% by 2030. Organic farming is a more sustainable way of farming that does not use synthetic pesticides or fertilizers. Increasing the area of organic farming will help to protect the environment and improve soil health.
• Reduce food waste by 50% by 2030. Food waste is a major problem in the EU. Reducing food waste will help to reduce the environmental impact of food production and consumption.

The Farm to Fork Strategy is a ambitious plan, but it is essential if the EU is to achieve its climate and environmental goals. The plan will require a significant investment from the EU, but it is an investment that is worth making. The Farm to Fork Strategy has the potential to transform the EU's food system and make it more sustainable and resilient.

Here are some of the specific measures that the EU is proposing to implement the Farm to Fork Strategy:

• Support for farmers who adopt sustainable practices. The EU will provide financial support to farmers who adopt sustainable practices, such as organic farming and precision agriculture.
• Regulation of pesticides and fertilizers. The EU will regulate the use of pesticides and fertilizers to reduce their environmental impact.
• Investment in research and development. The EU will invest in research and development to develop new sustainable food production and processing technologies.
• Education and awareness-raising. The EU will raise awareness of the importance of sustainable food production and consumption.

The Farm to Fork Strategy is a comprehensive and ambitious plan that has the potential to transform the EU's food system. The plan will require a significant investment from the EU, but it is an investment that is worth making. The Farm to Fork Strategy has the potential to make the EU's food system more sustainable and resilient, and it can help to address the climate crisis and the biodiversity crisis.
