Small farms' role in the EU food system
Most of the world's farmers are engaged in small scale agriculture. The majority of them are in developing countries but there are many in developed countries as well. Small farms make up the vast majority of the EU's 10 million farms. What constitutes a small farm depends on the context. However, improving the conditions of small-scale food producers is a global objective. Recent studies have lowered past estimates of how much of the global food supply is produced by small farms. Notwithstanding ...
Research for AGRI Committee - The Future of the European Farming Model: Socio-economic and territorial implications of the decline in the number of farms and farmers in the EU
This at-a-glance note is the summary of the study providing an overview of the effect of the decline in the number of farms across the EU on the European farming model (EFM), which is built around the notion of multifunctionality and provision of public goods by agriculture. It concludes that in order to foster sustainability and resilience, the EFM and policy must embrace the emerging diversity of farmer profiles and stimulate socially desirable adaptive strategies that preserve the multifunctionality ...
Regionalne rachunki ekonomiczne dla rolnictwa
Na przestrzeni lat UE stworzyła system statystyczny, który umożliwia bardziej świadome kształtowanie polityki i skuteczniejsze wdrażanie polityki. Proponowana zmiana rozporządzenia w sprawie rachunków ekonomicznych dla rolnictwa, podejmowana w kontekście szeroko zakrojonego procesu modernizacji statystyk rolnych, sformalizuje przekazywanie regionalnych danych dotyczących rolnictwa. Parlament ma głosować nad sprawozdaniem w pierwszym czytaniu podczas pierwszej sesji plenarnej w marcu.
Modernisation of the European agricultural statistics system
The European agricultural statistics system (EASS) is undergoing a major transformation, aiming to improve data quality by taking a more systemic and efficient approach. The modernisation process began some years ago with an evaluation of existing agricultural statistics. To complete the process, in February 2021, the European Commission put forward two proposals on statistics: on inputs and outputs of agricultural activities and on regional economic accounts for agriculture. The European Parliament ...

Urban agriculture in Europe: Patterns, challenges and policies
It is estimated that by 2050, 67 % of the world's population will live in urban areas. Increasing concerns over food security coupled with concerns over climate change have helped to promote interest in urban agriculture and the role it can play in respect of food security. The present paper aims to provide an overview of urban agriculture by examining it as it relates to issues of food security, the economy, social dimensions and the environment. Using short case studies and drawing on research ...
The EU's beekeeping sector
Every year, the EU's 600 000 beekeepers and their 16 million beehives produce 200 000 tonnes of honey. This is not however sufficient to cover demand on the EU market, and the shortfall is made up by imports, above all from China. Threats to bee health and market competition make the economic viability of apiculture a critical matter. EU policies aim therefore to address these issues and promote beekeeping, an activity that is of vital importance to the environment.
