The Farm to Fork strategy is the European roadmap to address the challenge of designing a fair, healthy and environmentally-friendly food system. Since it should set out the regulatory and non-regulatory measures needed to achieve this goal, several actions proposed by the Commission under this framework directly interest the EU quality schemes.

EU Quality Policy

EU Quality Policy aims to protect the names and characteristics of European agricultural products specific to a territory in order to promote their unique characteristics resulting from natural factors and traditional know-how linked to their geographical origin. This policy is the core of AREPO’s activity and its defence is our main mission.

Common Agricultural Policy

After a long negotiation process started in 2018, the last reform of the Common Agricultural Policy entered into force in January 2023, following a two-year transition period. Discover AREPO actions to achieve a right recognition of quality and origin products in the new CAP.

EU Promotion Policy

EU Promotion Policy helps EU agri-food sector professionals to finance information and promotion campaigns for breaking into international markets and making consumers more aware of the efforts made by European farmers to provide quality products. This policy is fundamental for the promotion of EU quality schemes in the internal market and in third countries and AREPO is currently contributing to its review.

Food Labelling

In the framework of the Farm to Fork strategy, the European Commission is considering options for several new food labelling initiatives to empower consumers to make healthy and sustainable food choices.

Organic Agriculture

Organic farming is a well-known and EU regulated food production system that contributes to deliver the ecosystem services needed for reaching EU Farm to Fork and Biodiversity targets. As such, it is considered a major pillar of the F2F strategy for a transition towards a European sustainable food system.

Geographical indications for craft and industrial products

The first EU regulation on the protection of geographical indications for craft and industrial products has officially entered into force on 16 November 2023. Driven by a vision of GIs as tools for rural development and territorial planning, AREPO supported the creation of an EU-wide protection scheme for craft and industrial GIs.

EU Trade Policy

The benefits of Geographical Indications (GIs) are particularly important from an international trade perspective as they can provide an export promotion mechanism through which the EU can compete on quality rather than price, due to their specificities attributable, at least in part, to their territories of origin and their inherent natural and human factors.

Research and Innovation

Adding value to products of origin through the development of sustainable GIs requires multi-disciplinary research, innovation and education in order to exploit their potential and respond rapidly to current challenges. Research and innovation should support the improvement of those products and use them as case study to extend good practices to other sectors.

GI-SMART

Selected under the call “HORIZON-CL6-2023-COMMUNITIES: Investigating the contribution of geographical indications (GIs) to sustainable development and optimizing support for newly established schemes”, the project officially began on June 1st, 2024. With a total budget of € 2,554,531.67, GI Smart aims at investigating the state of the art of research on the impacts of Geographical Indications […]

MOVING

MOVING (MOuntain Valorization through INterconnectedness and Green growth) is a Horizon 2020 project (2020-2024) coordinated by the University of Córdoba, gathering 23 partner organisations. The project will build capacities and co-develop policy frameworks across Europe. It will establish new or upscaled value chains to contribute to the resilience and sustainability of mountain areas to climate change.

AGROSMARTglobal

AGROSMARTglobal is a 3.5 year EU co-funded project that started in October 2019 and ended in March 2023. It aimed to support the digital internationalisation of agri-food cooperatives in the Sudoe and to promote and protect quality and origin products on the international digital market. AREPO was involved in this project as an internal partner with a key role in the activities of GI protection on the Internet.

Strength2food

Strength2Food is a 5-year EU-funded project that started in March 2016. It aims to provide the EU and its Member States with evidence-based recommendations on the implementation of quality policy. AREPO has been invited to participate in the project as an expert member of the Stakeholder Advisory Board (SAB).

AGROSMARTcoop

AGROSMARTcoop was a 2.5 year EU co-funded project that ended in December 2018. It aimed to strengthen the economic development of rural areas belonging to the Sudoe through the research of efficient transnational solutions to support the competitiveness of agri-food cooperatives. AREPO was involved in this project as an internal partner with a key role in the results dissemination.
