Dear Commissioner,
PAN Europe welcomes the European Commission's efforts to develop a Vision for Agriculture and Food. EU farmers and the food sector need a clear long-term vision to transition towards sustainable food systems. In this period of global geopolitical instability, it is also of major importance that EU policies remain science-based, while taking citizens' will into account. We are thus writing to you to respectfully ask you to ensure that the proposal text for the EU Vision for Agriculture and Food is amended, in order to address the unscientific narrative present in the draft version, as reported on by Euractiv and Politico.
