Rural Development Programmes – European Innovation Partnership – Organic Regulation Review

It presents many opportunities and can be used to put eco-functional intensification at the heart of the EU productivity and sustainability objectives. How will this new policy instrument be implemented? How can organic and agroecological approaches contribute to its development?

How can the new organic regulation help make Europe more organic and drive innovation for sustainable food production?
