- Slides: 24
Strategic Research and Innovation Agenda for Organics & Agroecology Leading Transition to Sustainable Food & Farming in Europe
Drafting process (2018 -2019) 3 workshops 33 authors 29 topics 4 themes
Moving organics forward Priorities for the organic sector » new Organic Regulation (EC 848/2018) results in new research priorities and support in implementing the new rules » Research should focus on: 1. Organic inputs and the circular economy: increasing the circularity of agricultural production 2. European Market Observatory for organic farming 3. Boosting organic breeding and the production of organic cultivars 4. New genetic engineering technologies and their implications for organic farming 5. Dealing with unwanted substances residues in organic products 6. The implementation of the new organic trade system 7. Increasing the sustainability of organic aquaculture
Climate resilient, diversified farming systems based on ecological approaches » Farming practices that intentionally include functional biodiversity in space and time in order to maintain ecosystem services » 12 research topics focusing on four sub-themes: 1. Diverse and healthy crops and livestock for multi-purpose production 2. Autonomy in genetic resources, 3. Ensuring production diversity in specialised systems, 4. Climate change adaptation and mitigation.
Re-design of food and agricultural policies from local to EU level » To achieve the transformation of European agri-food sector a farm-to-fork strategy along the whole value chain is needed. » Research should focus on: 1. impact assessment of the CAP regime post 2020 and impact of organic support policies 2. policies for to the delivery of public goods and sustainability assessment 3. local sustainable food systems, green public procurement & job creation 4. contribution of organics to food security and sustainable management of natural resources on a global level 5. digital Knowledge and Information Systems for organic food & farming
Sustainable value chains for better food systems » Food processing, distribution and consumption, including sustainable diets, must be better integrated in an organic food systems approach » Research should help organic sector to operate in each step of the food chain in accordance with organic principles. » Research should focus on 1. Minimal processing 2. Reducing food and packaging waste 3. Sustainable and healthy organic diets 4. Food safety in the organic value chain 5. Digital solutions for transparency across the value chains
Recommendations for Policy-Makers » Organic sector has led the way for providing food with minimal environmental footprint, where the highest quality is achieved through fair production and careful processing. » Organic sector needs to develop further , inspiring and leading the transformation of the wider food system. » R&I in the organic sector is crucial to improve our future food systems
