About the policy paper

Agriculture affects the climate and the environment in different ways. One of them is the emission of greenhouse gases. It is estimated that in the European Union agriculture is responsible for a total of over 10% of greenhouse gas emissions. At the same time, it is one of the sectors of the economy that is already strongly affected by the negative consequences of climate change. We are at a crucial moment in designing the public policies and actions on which the achievement of the objectives of the European Green Deal in three decades is dependent.
