European Commissioner for Agriculture proposes prioritizing EU protein production for the next Common Agricultural Policy.

European Commissioner for Agriculture Janusz Wojciechowski suggests increasing protein production in the EU should be a priority for the next Common Agricultural Policy. With most plant-based protein sources imported, a new EU protein strategy could enhance price stability, improve animal product origins, and support the growth of high-value consumer markets. The European Parliament report on alternative proteins highlights their potential in improving food security and reducing environmental impacts of food and feed production.
