A Green Deal for implementing agroecological systems – Reforming the Common Agricultural Policy of the European Union
The rationale and ambition for a deep redesign of agricultural and food systems in Europe is developed in this paper and based on three main documents: The Treaty on the Functioning of the European Union (TFEU) (EU, 2016), the priorities of the European Commission for the future Common Agricultural Policy (CAP) (EC, 2018) for the 2021–2027 period, and the European “Green Deal” (EC, 2019). The major issues we hereby address are climate change adaptation and mitigation, management of natural resources, conservation and restoration of biodiversity and enhancement of ecosystem services, and economic and societal aspects. Then we outline essential components for an agroecological Green Deal in Europe.
