| Teaser: | Overview of the organic agriculture sector in Spain - Production, market trends & policies. |
| What problem does the tool address?: | The Farm-to-Fork Strategy and Biodiversity Strategy, integral components of the European Green Deal, share a common goal of establishing a fair, healthy, and environmentally friendly food system within the European Union (EU). These strategies acknowledge the vital significance of organic farming and aquaculture in attaining this overarching objective. With the European Green Deal, the Farm-to-Fork Strategy and the Biodiversity Strategy, the EU has set targets of 25% of agricultural land under organic farming and significant increase of organic aquaculture. |
| What solution does the tool offer?: | Achieving these targets requires a balanced up-scaling of production and consumption, implying a considerable transformation in farm structures and value chains. The project OrganicTargets4EU aims to achieve expected outcomes that drive the growth and development of the organic sector. |
