Green Deal Goals Make the EU climate neutral by 2050 Restore biodiversity and cut pollution Invest in environmentally-friendly technologies Support the industry in innovating Boost the efficient use of resources Move to a clean, circular economy Roll out cleaner, cheaper and healthier forms of transport Decarbonise the energy sector Ensure buildings are more energy efficient Work with international partners to improve global environmental standards
Green Deal Mission “The recovery plan turns the immense challenge we face into an opportunity, not only by supporting the recovery but also by investing in our future: the European Green Deal and digitalization will boost jobs and growth, the resilience of our societies and the health of our environment.” - European Commission President Ursula von der Leyen 1 Billion Euro is pledged to ensuring this

6.1. Testing and demonstrating systemic innovations for sustainable food from farm to fork Specific Challenge- • Current production and consumption patterns result in air, water and soil pollution ; • Contribute to the loss of biodiversity and to climate change ; • Challenge animal welfare • Consume excessive amounts of natural resources , while an important part of food is wasted . • At the same time, unbalanced diets contribute to obesity and other nutrition-related diseases . • COVID19 highlights the importance of resilient EU food systems to respond to global shocks & food poverty.
6.1. Testing and demonstrating systemic innovations for sustainable food from farm to fork Specific Challenge- Agriculture is responsible for 10.3 % of the EU’s GHG emissions; Food contributes to ~17% of EU household GHG-emissions ; Nitrogen & Phosphorus cycles exceed their safe operating space in Europe, by a factor of 3.3 and 2 respectively; Antimicrobial resistance linked to excessive & inappropriate use of antimicrobials in animal and human healthcare, leads to ~33,000 deaths in the EU/EEA a year, and high healthcare costs; ~20% of the foo d produced in the EU goes to waste ; One in five EU adults are obese and half are overweight.
6.1. Testing and demonstrating systemic innovations for sustainable food from farm to fork Main Scope- Deploy & scale innovations contributing to Farm-to-Fork Strategy objectives; Test, pilot, and demonstrate systemic solutions (TRL 5-7) in one of six subtopics. o TRL 5 – technology validated in relevant environment (industrially relevant environment in the case of key enabling technologies) o TRL 6 – technology demonstrated in relevant environment (industrially relevant environment in the case of key enabling technologies) o TRL 7 – system prototype demonstration in operational environment
6.1. Testing and Demonstrating Systemic Innovations for Sustainable Food From Farm to Fork Main Expected Impact – Demonstrate innovative systemic solutions that will generate significant positive impacts by 2030 . Specific to one or more subtopics. Contribute significantly to the achievement of the objectives and targets of the Farm-to-Fork Strategy and The European Green Deal. Specific to one or more subtopics. Achieve an increase in awareness among policy makers, businesses, investors, entrepreneurs, institutions, stakeholders and citizens of selected innovative systemic solutions, of their potential and of the requirements to promote and realise their uptake at EU scale and behavioural change. Applies to all subtopics.
A. Achieving climate neutral farms by reducing GHG emissions and by increasing farm-based carbon sequestration and storage Expected Impact Demonstrate solutions that will generate positive impacts by 2030 o Achieving climate neutrality of farms (on land, water and sea); reducing GHG emissions; increasing carbon sequestration & storage Contribute to the achievement of the objectives and targets of the Farm-to-Fork Strategy and The European Green Deal o Reducing GHG-emissions by at least 50% by 2050 compared with 1990 levels
B. Achieving climate neutral food businesses by mitigating climate change, reducing energy use and increasing energy efficiency in processing, distribution, conservation and preparation of food Expected Impact Demonstrate innovative systemic solutions that have the potential to generate significant positive impacts by 2030 with regards to: o Achieving climate neutrality of food businesses; reducing energy use and increasing energy efficiency in processing, distribution, conservation and preparation of food Contribute to the achievement of the objectives and targets of the Farm-to-Fork Strategy and The European Green Deal: o Reducing GHG-emissions by at least 50% by 2050 compared with 1990 levels
