More than two years ago, the EU Commission presented an action plan for more organic agriculture. The goal was to increase the organic share in food production to 25 percent by 2030. Germany is even more ambitious and wants to reach 30 percent by the same date. My colleague Timo Landenberger and I have put the action plan, its implementation to date and the meaningfulness of the target to the test in the context of food safety in the EU. I can say this much in advance: There are major doubts about the Commission’s plans.
