💡@TPOrganics presented its demands for the next EU Framework Programme for research & innovation (FP10). We call for at least €200 billion for agri-food R&I. To unlock the full potential of sustainable farming, 30% of this should go to organic & agroecological innovation.🌱.
🚨New: TP Organics’ Position Paper on #FP10 is out!. ✔ €200bn budget.✔ Keep FP10 standalone & mission-driven.✔ Ringfence organic R&I.✔ Recognise #agroecology strategic contribution to @EU_Commission priorities 2024-2029. 📄

🚨The new CAP proposal is worrying!.It backtracks on sustainability by safeguarding budgets only for area-based payments, leaving the choice of financing agri-environmental measures to Member States. 📰Read #OrganicsEurope's press release:
The @EU_Commission’s #CAP proposal weakens sustainability, leaving up to MS how to finance agri-environmental measures.🌿At least one third of the CAP budget should be ringfenced for the protection of ecosystems services including #OrganicFarming. Our PR

💧The Commission’s recognition of organic as part of the solution to Europe’s water challenges is welcome, but the Water Resilience Strategy fails to tackle pesticide pollution. We cannot turn a blind eye to synthetic pesticide use and persistent contaminants like PFAS. 🚨.
💧#WaterResilience Strategy acknowledges #organic's role for water resilience, but lacks overall ambition by ignoring the major threat of pesticide pollution. We need bold action to preserve water bodies & support truly sustainable farming systems🌿.Our PR

📢 The European Commission’s proposal on CAP simplification recognises organic farming as “green by definition.”. This recognition should serve as a positive signal to farmers, encouraging greater investment in sustainable practices that deliver public goods for society.🌍.
📢 We welcome organic's recognition as "green by definition" in today's #CAPsimplification proposal. But stronger incentives are needed for farmers striving for sustainable agrifood systems. Simplification should support – not dilute – this transition!.📰🧐

🇪🇺🤝🇺🇸I am concerned about the US decision to impose a 20% tariff on EU agri-food exports.🌱. This move threatens long-standing trade partnerships and puts organic farmers on both sides of the Atlantic at risk - farmers need stability and cooperation, not confrontation!🌎
