‘From Farm to Fork’ strategy – impact assessment and public consultation

3.2.2021

Question for written answer  E-000689/2021
to the Commission
Rule 138
Jadwiga Wiśniewska (ECR)

The ‘From Farm to Fork’ strategy is one part of the broader European Green Deal, which aims to move the Union’s economies towards having a sustainable food system.

In this context I would like to ask the following:

• 1.When elaborating the ‘From Farm to Fork’ strategy, did the Commission carry out a thorough assessment of the impact of the proposed regulations on the individual Member States’ economies?
• 2.In the early stages of elaborating the strategy, did the Commission carry out a consultation in order to establish realistic reduction targets for individual Member States’ economies?
• 3.Is reducing the use of pesticides by 50% an EU-wide target or is it a target for each Member State individually?
