EU environment chief Virginijus Sinkevičius insists there will be no unnecessary overlap between the new circular economy plan and the Farm to Fork strategy (F2F), as new EU food policy will be focused more on the agricultural and food production side.
Although expected to cover the entire food supply chain as the name ‘Farm to Fork’ suggests, Sinkevičius told reporters that the F2F will focus on agriculture, aquaculture and sustainable food production, while the circular economy action plan is more geared towards “economic activities.”
