As the "Livestock Workstream" meets today to advise @ec.europa.eu on the Strategy’s content, 17 organisations from the @eufpc.bsky.social have submitted their joint input.

The EU #LivestockStrategy will shape the future of farming. An opportunity for @ec.europa.eu to: 🧑‍🌾 support farmers in transition 🌍 cut pollution 🐄 end factory farming It's time for fair incomes, better animal welfare, healthier food, and a system that protects nature - the foundation of farming ⤵️

🛠️ Fix the agri-food system or miss climate targets, warns scientists The latest @esabcc.bsky.social report calls for a “systemic transition” to: 🌱 climate-proof our food and farming system 😷 protect public health and our environment 🐄 and reduce our reliance on feed and fertiliser imports 🧵👇

By 2050, climate change could push food prices up 20%. Agriculture makes up 12% of EU emissions, yet agribusiness lobbyists block real climate action, like controlling harmful and dangerous levels of industrial animal production. #FeedPeopleNotAgribusiness #EUAgriFoodDays

EU Food Policy Coalition @eufpc.bsky.social · 11/12/2025

A handful of corporations control what we eat - and profit from it. Seeds, pesticides, machinery, carbon credits, fertilisers, even poultry genetics. That’s not free choice - that’s corporate monopolies. #EUAgriFoodDays #FeedPeopleNotAgribusiness

112

EU Food Policy Coalition @eufpc.bsky.social · 10/12/2025

Food corporations built a system where junk is cheap, everywhere, and aggressively marketed. The diets they profit off are making people sick - 800,000+ deaths every year - while public health costs explode. #EUAgriFoodDays #FeedPeopleNotAgribusiness

EU Food Policy Coalition @eufpc.bsky.social · 09/12/2025

Europe is losing its farmers. 5.3 MILLION farms have disappeared since 2005. Small-scale farmland is being eaten up by Big Agri corporations. Big industrial farms make starting out nearly impossible. #EUAgriFoodDays #FeedPeopleNotAgribusiness

EU Food Policy Coalition @eufpc.bsky.social · 08/12/2025

🚨Industrial agriculture consumes most of our food, while millions go hungry in Europe. Most EU farmland isn’t supporting people - it’s feeding factory farms. That’s land we need to grow real food and nourish communities. #EUAgriFoodDays #FeedPeopleNotAgribusiness

They call for: 🌾 Fair farmer income support 🌱 Create the economic conditions for the agroecological (e.g., organic) transition 🚜 Make farming attractive 🌿 Invest in ecosystems and support farmers in the transition ❌ End harmful subsidies 💶 EU budget that delivers on public goals #MakeCAPWork 2/2

#GlobalFertilizerDay 🤔 Should we celebrate? Did you know that... fertilisers are tied to soaring food prices 🍞💸? In 2022, as gas prices surged, so did food costs — leaving families skipping meals while fertiliser companies reported record profits. Time to make farming less reliant on fossil fuels!

These are the main (food/farming/fisheries-related) initiatives for the year to come, together with a "Buy European food campaign" and a review of the implementation of the Unfair Trading Practices Directive to ensure fair prices for farmers 👇 #SOTEU commission.europa.eu/strategy-and...

Farmers don’t win when rules are gutted. Agribusiness does. We all rely on clean water, healthy soils & strong ecosystems to grow food — those protections are being sold off as “red tape.” #DeregulationWave #SOTEU2025

EU Food Policy Coalition @eufpc.bsky.social · 10/09/2025

🌱 Dear @vonderleyen.ec.europa.eu, citizens across Europe want safe food, clean air, thriving nature & fair livelihoods for farmers and fishers — not deregulation that lets corporations cut corners. Which future are we shaping for our #FoodSystem? #DeregulationWave #SOTEU2025

EU Food Policy Coalition @eufpc.bsky.social · 02/07/2025

As we await the EU's #2040Target climate proposal, signs suggest we may be headed for disappointment. Yet agrifood systems offer immense untapped potential for #ClimateAction — a missed opportunity if left on the sidelines.

EU Food Policy Coalition @eufpc.bsky.social · 05/06/2025

👨‍🌾 Farmers are already grappling with the impacts of climate change. It’s time to ensure they are central to the EU’s climate solution with an ambitious and binding #2040Target for emission reduction as part of the wider transition to agroecology. 👀 the letter 👉 bit.ly/4mNBlgB

EU Food Policy Coalition @eufpc.bsky.social · 05/06/2025

Cutting emissions by at least 90% by 2040 is key to EU security and competitiveness, according to @esabcc.bsky.social. One sector holds untapped potential: #FoodSystems. A transition to #agroecology, combined with healthier diets, can play a pivotal role in achieving the EU’s climate goals.

🌍 The EU must unlock the climate potential of our #FoodSystems — not backtrack on its climate commitments. This is the message sent today to @wopkehoekstra.ec.europa.eu by a group of 17 civil society organisations and farmers representatives. ✉️ Read their letter here 👉 bit.ly/4mNBlgB

EU Food Policy Coalition @eufpc.bsky.social · 28/05/2025

Today we read in @politico.eu that the world largest sea “dead zone” is in the Baltic Sea — and that industrial agriculture in countries bordering the Baltic is the culprit. Yet the EU’s agricultural policy #CAP continues to incentivize this industrialized model… #ThisIsNotAFarm

EU Food Policy Coalition @eufpc.bsky.social · 26/05/2025

🚨The #EU’s €386bn #CAP is failing farmers & the 🌍. 😱 Since 2005, 5 million farms disappeared, while 80% of funds go to just 20%. With their new campaign #ThisIsNotAFarm launched today, @wemoveeurope.bsky.social uses Magritte-style art to demand reform. ✍️ To sign the petition 👉 www.notfarming.com

Whilst informing people about lifestyles and cancer risk is necessary, what we need is to create a healthier society — including healthier #FoodEnvironments — where cancer risk factors (such as poor diets) are less likely to develop in the first place. #EWAC2025 #GoodFood4EU #ThinkFoodSystems

EU Food Policy Coalition @eufpc.bsky.social · 26/05/2025

This week is European Week Against Cancer. Under the previous mandate, the @ec.europa.eu announced plans to improve access to healthy diets to fight cancer risk... but sadly didn't deliver. #EUBeatingCancer #EWAC2025

🤔What can the EU do to promote fair #FoodEnvironments? 😫Not much, if you read #EUAgriVision... 💡Yet in fact, there's *a lot* the EU could do, starting with facilitating best practice exchange amongst EU countries and presenting an EU Action Plan for Plant-Based Foods. #ThinkFoodSystems

We're following @agoraagrar.bsky.social and @iddri.bsky.social webinar on national food policies. 🚨To shape fair #FoodEnvironments: 👉Information & labelling isn't enough 👉Need for policies addressing affordability, availability & appeal of healthy + sustainable food #GoodFood4All

EU Food Policy Coalition @eufpc.bsky.social · 08/05/2025

We couldn’t agree more with the concluding thoughts shared by participants at today’s #EUAgriVision conference: we need to #ThinkFoodSystems and to talk about farming and *FOOD*. #GoodFood4All

030

EU Food Policy Coalition @eufpc.bsky.social · 08/05/2025

A #FoodSystems approach isn’t a buzzword. It’s how we connect farming, fishing, food, climate, health, social justice, animal welfare… and more. It’s what EU policymakers need—urgently. #ThinkFoodSystems #EUAgriVision

EU Food Policy Coalition @eufpc.bsky.social · 08/05/2025

What does a #FoodSystems approach do? ✅It makes invisible impacts visible. 💡It creates space for joined-up thinking. 💪And it delivers answers that work for all, from local to global. #ThinkFoodSystems #EUAgriVision

EU Food Policy Coalition @eufpc.bsky.social · 08/05/2025

👨‍🌾🤝🍽️The demand and supply sides of the agri-food system are interdependent. Action is required on both sides to enable an agroecological transition in the EU. It's time to do away with siloed policymaking leading to policy incoherence and instead to #ThinkFoodSystems! #EUAgriVision

162

EU Food Policy Coalition @eufpc.bsky.social · 08/05/2025

The EU Vision for Agriculture and Food has too many blind spots. A #FoodSystems lens sees the whole picture and maximises our ability to achieve multiple goals, from decent livelihoods for farmers and fishers to affordable healthy diets for people on a thriving 🌍 #ThinkFoodSystems #EUAgriVision

EU Food Policy Coalition @eufpc.bsky.social · 05/05/2025

While @ec.europa.eu #EUAgriVison remains disappointingly thin on consumption, supportive EU-level frameworks can help national governments to advance effective demand-side food policies, the think tanks write. Food for thought ahead of this week’s event on the Vision for Agriculture & Food! 🤓 4/4

EU Food Policy Coalition @eufpc.bsky.social · 05/05/2025

🚨 Time to #ThinkFoodSystems! New report published today by @agoraagrar.bsky.social and @iddri.bsky.social finds that demand-side policies are key to help solve the pressing challenges facing our #FoodSystems. 🧵👇 1/4 www.agora-agriculture.org/publications...

EU Food Policy Coalition @eufpc.bsky.social · 23/04/2025

We would be even more excited if the Conference would also focus on *food* and the demand side, not just the agri-food sector - reflecting a true #FoodSystems approach ... 🤗 ...and if it were possible to follow #EUAgriVision on #Bluesky and not just X (but for this, you can count on us! 😉)

EU Food Policy Coalition @eufpc.bsky.social · 17/04/2025

The draft agenda of @ec.europa.eu #EUAgriVision Conference has finally been published (see link in comment). Not much about *food* policies on the programme, sadly. ... still, we'll be joining and posting live from the event. If you want to stay informed, follow us! 🤓

Did you know that ... the EU is almost halfway to reaching its #EUFarm2Fork target of halving sales of antimicrobials for farmed animals and in aquaculture by 2030? Yet progress has been uneven across countries, and more needs to be done to tackle #AntimicrobialResistance from farming & aquaculture.

On Monday, Commissioner @christophehansen.bsky.social will debate (again) about the Vision for Agriculture and Food with EU lawmakers - this time in the ENVI Committee. 🤞 Hopefully *food* will finally get more than just a mention in the discussion, as it cannot remain a blind spot in #EUAgriVision!
