What does the EU Green Deal mean for the fruit and vegetable sector?

Last Tuesday, an information meeting on developments surrounding the European Green Deal, the Farm to Fork policy and the Biodiversity strategy was held by the Dutch fruit and vegetable sector. Increasing the sustainability of the food system will have significant consequences but is still in its infancy. The goal of 25% organic produce has wide support in Europe, despite resistance from conventional parties. In the Netherlands, the fresh produce sector will now first focus on sustainable packaging and the reduction of food waste. The first concrete legislative proposals are expected in the summer of 2022.
