OrganicTargets4EU (OT4EU), a Horizon Europe project, is supporting the achievement of these targets. FiBL Europe, FiBL Switzerland and the Hungarian Research Institute of Organic Agriculture (\u00d6MKi) take part in the project consortium of this recently launched project.<\/p>\n<p class=\"text-align-justify\">The project,\u00a0 <a href=\"https:\/\/www.fibl.org\/en\/themes\/projectdatabase\/projectitem\/project\/2120\" target=\"_self\" title=\"\" rel=\"noopener\">OrganicTargets4EU, &#8220;Transformation scenarios for boosting organic farming and organic aquaculture towards the Farm-to-Fork targets<\/a><a href=\"https:\/\/www.fibl.org\/en\/themes\/projectdatabase\/projectitem\" target=\"_self\" title=\"\" rel=\"noopener\">,<\/a> is funded by the European Union\u2019s research programme Horizon Europe.<\/p>\n<p class=\"text-align-justify\">Bram Moeskops, project coordinator and Research and Innovation Manager at IFOAM Organics Europe, explains: &#8220;The organic sector needs to grow from 9.2% farmland in 2020 to 25% farmland by 2030. There is no concrete target for organic aquaculture, but a similar almost three-fold growth will require enormous efforts. Reaching these ambitious goals demands a balanced upscaling of both production and consumption and implies a huge transformation in farm structures and value chains. This transformation needs to be supported by pioneering research and innovation (R&amp;I), strong advisory services, effective knowledge exchange and training opportunities for all organic operators and related professionals.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p class=\"text-align-justify\"><strong>Scenarios for reaching the organic targets<\/strong><\/p>\n<p class=\"text-align-justify\">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.<\/p>\n<p class=\"text-align-justify\">The project is structured into two strands:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li class=\"text-align-justify\">Production and markets: analysing how to achieve increases in organic farmland and the (socio-economic) impacts for primary production, value chains and markets.<\/li>\n<li class=\"text-align-justify\">Knowledge and innovation: identifying opportunities to strengthen advisory services, building on the CORE Organic network*, increasing and better coordinating R&amp;I investment for organic, and working towards an innovation ecosystem fit for achieving the Farm to Fork Strategy\u2019s targets.<\/li>\n<li class=\"text-align-justify\">Multi-actor approach at the project\u2019s core<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p class=\"text-align-justify\">Eight focus countries will help bridge the gap between science and practice: Austria, Denmark, France, Germany, Greece, Hungary, Italy, and Romania. These were selected to cover Europe\u2019s full range of geographical contexts. Each focus country is represented by a \u2018Practice Partner\u2019, with close connections to producers and value chain actors.<\/p>\n<p class=\"text-align-justify\">OrganicTargets4EU will also facilitate a multi-actor policy dialogue to assess the feasibility of the organic Farm to Fork targets and develop policy recommendations for the Common Agricultural Policy (CAP), EU organic regulation, EU and national organic action plans, Horizon Europe, and horizontal legislation on inputs and public procurement.<\/p>\n<p class=\"text-align-justify\"><strong>FiBL takes on diverse roles in OT4EU<\/strong><\/p>\n<p class=\"text-align-justify\">The project utilises FiBL\u2019s extensive knowledge and databases in the organic sector to identify drivers and lock-ins for the development of the organic sector, providing the bases for the foresight and scenario analysis. The Organic Farm Knowledge platform\u2019s toolbox will be further expanded, with practice partners, aiming to provide useful end-user materials to farmers and advisors. Additionally, FiBL will produce new knowledge with involvement in communication and dissemination activities, including digital country factsheets, media articles, scientific papers, videos, practice abstracts and policy briefs, for the benefit of all target stakeholders: most notably farmers, researchers and policymakers.<\/p>\n<p class=\"text-align-justify\">Additionally, FiBL EU\u2019s expertise in project management and administration is utilised, supporting technical and financial reporting, the data management plan, exploitation, and stakeholder collaboration.<\/p>\n<p class=\"text-align-justify\">\u00d6MKi is responsible for supporting knowledge exchange and capacity building to reach the Farm to Fork goals. \u00d6MKi will carry out an assessment of the knowledge and innovation systems for organic agriculture, aquaculture and for processors and retailers and will furthermore organise workshops to stimulate the availability of advisory services and capacity building.<\/p>\n<p class=\"text-align-justify\">Source: FIBL<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":77174,"template":"","economia":[6140],"parole_chiave":[6814,9376,6191,6147,8698,6741,6811,6284,6614,6948],"produzioni":[],"Regioni":[],"tecniche_produttive":[],"controlli":[],"tipologia":[77],"tipo_di_contenuto_collegato":[84,83,86],"class_list":["post-77173","bionovita","type-bionovita","status-publish","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","economia-mercato","parole_chiave-acquacoltura","parole_chiave-adattamento-climatico","parole_chiave-farm-to-fork","parole_chiave-fibl","parole_chiave-horizon-europe","parole_chiave-innovazione","parole_chiave-mercati","parole_chiave-organic-farm-knowledge","parole_chiave-pac","parole_chiave-produzione","tipologia-news","tipo_di_contenuto_collegato-cosa-e-bio","tipo_di_contenuto_collegato-politiche","tipo_di_contenuto_collegato-referenti-bio"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v26.7 -
