Action plan for the development of EU organic production
COMMUNICATION FROM THE COMMISSION TO THE EUROPEAN PARLIAMENT, THE COUNCIL, THE EUROPEAN ECONOMIC AND SOCIAL COMMITTEE AND THE COMMITTEE OF THE REGIONS ON AN ACTION PLAN FOR THE DEVELOPMENT OF ORGANIC PRODUCTION
- Initiative summary:
- Under the European Green Deal, the Commission set an ambitious target of at least 25% of EU agricultural land farmed organically by 2030, and a significant increase in organic aquaculture.
