EU Food Price Debate - 12 November 15.30-17 h online event

An online event took place on Thursday 12 November:. the EU food price debate - getting the prices right. This in response to the publication of the EU Green Deal - Farm to Fork Strategy on 20 May. What does this bring for environmental, nature and health benefits and what does it mean for organic farming? How will food prices change if the healthy, most environmentally friendly choice is to become the easiest choice? Will there be a 0% VAT rate on (organic) fruit and vegetables and how will Europe, Germany or the Netherlands increase the price of meat?
