The Strategic Dialogue on the future of EU agriculture was launched in january 2024 and was a forum that aimed to shape a shared vision for EU farming. It brought together key stakeholders from across the whole agri-food chain, including farmers, co-operatives, agri-food businesses, and rural communities; as well as non-governmental organisations and civil society representatives, financial institutions and academia.
To discuss the report of this Strategic Dialogue and refine the vision on EU agriculture even further, the European Commission will organise a conference on the 8th of May in Brussels. Only the plenary sessions will be videostreamed so if you want to participate in the break-out sessions you will need to be present in person. You can register on this website if you want to particiopate on site.

The RUSTICA project obtained funding under Horizon 2020, more in particular under the topic ‘Closing nutrient cycles’. RUSTICA focuses on demonstration and implementation of circular bio-based nutrient valorisation chains, focusing on waste from the fruit and vegetable agro-food system. The project kicked off in 2021 and will run until 2024. It will use a strong multi-actor approach to co-create both socio-economic and technological knowledge in four case study regions in Europe and one in Colombia. The Flanders-based company DRANCO is one of the project partners and acts as technical project manager for the entire project. DRANCO participates in the project to develop its own technologies, to network and to help make the transition to a more circular based economy.
