AN AGRO-ECOLOGICAL FUTURE FOR EUROPE 03/december

At the European level, the Green Deal lies at the core of the ecological transition; among its objectives are achieving climate neutrality for Europe by 2050 and a substantial reduction in pollution. Specifically, in the agricultural sector, the European Commission aims to halve nutrient losses to the environment (air, water, soil) and pesticide use by 2030. These goals face opposition from certain stakeholder groups, as they are potentially associated with a decrease in agricultural production in Europe. In this context, it is necessary to develop integrative approaches to the functioning of the agri-food system that consider not only production but also food demand. Agroecology—by definition applying ecological and social concepts to the design and management of agri-food systems—can respond to this need.
