Built in light of the work of the Dialogue on the Future of Agriculture launched by President Ursula von der Leyen in January 2024, the EU Vision for Agriculture and Food represents a sort of roadmap of upcoming initiatives and legislative proposals for the agri-food sector.
The document, presented by Agriculture Commissioner Christophe Hansen, together with Executive Vice-President responsible for Cohesion and Reforms, Raffaele Fitto, on February 19, was illustrated by Hansen to the European Parliament plenary on March 13. In the Chamber, Hansen confirmed that Brussels is working on a package of Common Agricultural Policy (CAP) simplification proposals, which will be presented by June 2025, and a second package with legislative proposals introducing simplifications in various areas of interest to the agri-food chain.
