“The trio will support the transition towards sustainable agriculture and food systems through the implementation of the EU’s ‘Farm to Fork’ strategy and the new Common Agricultural Policy (CAP) whilst taking into account Member States’ different starting points, circumstances and conditions, in accordance with the principle of sustainability. In particular, it will promote a reduced use of pesticides and fertilisers, animal health and welfare, as well as organic agriculture through clear and simple food information to customers, thereby ensuring healthy food for the Union’s citizens. The trio will promote a sustainable and balanced management of fisheries’ resources, in particular in the context of the EU’s relations with the United Kingdom. It will also encourage the development of sustainable aquaculture.”
