The Horizon Europe project OrganicTargets4EU - Transformation scenarios for boosting organic farming and organic aquaculture towards the Farm-to-Fork targets - is supporting the achievement of the set goals of the EU in its Farm to Fork Strategy and Biodiversity Strategy to reach at least 25% of the EU’s agricultural land under organic farming and significantly increase organic aquaculture by 2030.
Based on an assessment of drivers and lock-ins affecting the development of the organic sector, the OrganicTargets4EU project will set up a multi-actor process to develop possible scenarios for reaching the organic targets of the Farm to Fork Strategy.
The project is structured into two strands:
Using a multi-actor approach in collaboration with Practice Partners from Austria, Denmark, France, Germany, Greece, Hungary, Italy, and Romania, the project will identify existing tools to further expanded the Organic Farm Knowledge platform’s toolbox. Additionally, knowledge and innovations discovered in the project will be presented in new tools, further enriching the knowledge in the toolbox.
