🇪🇺 How can the EU harness the full potential of agroforestry? AGROMIX has set out 5 core policy pathways in its white paper "Transforming European Food Systems with Agroforestry." These policies can help the EU lead the way towards a sustainable, resilient, and equitable food system that meets the needs of present and future generations. To maximise agroforestry uptake, the EU should: 1.  Formalise a consistent classification and criteria system for agroforestry across Europe. 2. Embed transformative agroforestry within a radically reformed CAP. 3. Ensure robust, long-term financial rewards for agroforestry implementation. 4. Firmly embed tree products and services from agroforestry systems in numerous value chains. 5. Make farmers, landowners and relevant decision-makers familiar with transformative agroforestry practices. 🌳 🐑 🌾 🦉 The full white paper is available for download in the Policy Corner of the AGROMIX website: https://lnkd.in/d-p6zTd2 🔄 Coventry University Estonian University of Life Sciences Wageningen University & Research Agri-Food and Biosciences Institute Scuola Superiore Sant'Anna Università di Pisa Agroecology Europe Association Universidad de Extremadura Cranfield University ILVO (Instituut voor Landbouw, Visserij- en Voedingsonderzoek) Agroscope Tenuta di Paganico Soc.
