    The Farm to Fork strategy

    Will the Green Deal trigger a global hunger crisis? Or will European farmers lose their income if we allow them to use fewer pesticides? Does producing more food mean less malnutrition? ❌ No of course not.

    Opinion by Benoît Biteau & Eleonora Evi & Claude Gruffat & Martin Häusling & Tilly Metz & Michèle Rivasi & Thomas Waitz & Sarah Wiener
    The European Commission is trying to weaken the EU’s regulations on genetically modified organisms (GMOs). It plans to exclude some GMOs from the regulations. Like this, agricultural corporations could market them without GMO authorisation, traceability or labelling.
