Paving the way for a more sustainable food system

The fact sheet proposes specific targets for the EU's "Farm to Fork" Strategy, focusing on reducing pollution from farming, ending overfishing, and eliminating harmful chemicals and single-use plastics across the food system to align with climate commitments.

• The document recommends that the Farm to Fork Strategy establish targets to end overfishing, combat destructive fishing practices, and lower unsustainable fish consumption, while supporting environmentally responsible aquaculture and improving seafood labelling and traceability.
• To improve environmental sustainability, the document suggests targets to reduce agro-chemical use, remove harmful chemicals from the market, and drastically decrease soil, water, and air pollution resulting from farming.
• The strategy should aim for a sustainable food system aligned with EU climate commitments, protect wildlife, and reduce the use of single-use plastics in the fishing, agricultural, and food sectors.
