A team with agronomic, ecological and economic expertise will pursue these aims using a combination of analyses of existing data on uptake of organic farming, empirical studies across scales from fields to farms, and ecological-economic modelling and analyses. We will do this in interaction with relevant stakeholders to inform the development of policies such as the Common Agricultural Policy and actions to increase organic consumption, in order to optimize the uptake of organic farming for balancing agriculture’s contribution towards achieving the UN's sustainable development goals.
