Summary

Upscaling organic farming (OF) and agroecology (AE) in Europe will have major implications across the whole food-chain. As both the intensity and the geography of food production would undergo significant changes, it will affect the current rationale of the entire food chain, namely collectors, processors, traders, retailers and at the end, consumers. The challenge is to identify how the business models should evolve at each link of the chain to accompany the large scale transition towards OF/AE, thus delivering the specific food attributes associated with OF/AE.Based on the Ten Years For Agroecology scenario (TYFA), the paper first identifies the structural changes implied in food chains organization by a full transition to OF/AE across Europe. It then explores the policy changes needed at the EU level in order to accompany such a transition. The range of policies concerned is wide. The proposed analysis may inspire an EU policy agenda towards sustainable agriculture and food.
