EURACTIV News - Mon, 2024-06-17 05:01
In the midst of political transition, collaboration across the food system is vital Europe is entering a new era of politics, with the results of the European elections of 6-9 June set to make a huge impact across the European Union and beyond. This will no doubt have consequences for Europe’s (and as a result, our global) food system. A new cohort of MEPs will be ushered in against the backdrop of widespread farmer protests, driven by frustration at a lack of opportunities and economic support, as well as a perception that suppliers outside of Europe are not subject to the same strict requirements. But despite tensions, our food system is transforming, both within and outside of traditional decision-making fora. For the incoming European Parliament, speed and scale are of the essence, and there is an urgent need to support actors across our whole food system – including farmers, investors, innovators, and consumers – by creating the optimum policy environment for positive changes to take shape.
