| Summary: | Against the background of the goals of the European Green Deal to reduce the use of
pesticides by 50% and fertilizers by 20% by 2030, the current analysis aims to: (1) identify
key economic, institutional, and legislative levers that can play an important role in the
agricultural specialization of the EU according to the European Green Deal and the reform
of the Common Agricultural Policy; (2) analyze representative variables of the European
agricultural environment during the 2000-2019 period concerning the alignment of Member
States with the objectives of the Green Deal and the overall performance of the agricultural
sector; (3) present a set of good practices to reduce the use of fertilizers and pesticides in
agricultural systems based on the documentation of the impact of these substances on human
health and the environment. The results show that available agricultural solutions, in line
with the objectives of the Green Deal and the Common Agricultural Policy, are effective in
practice. Our findings can help define national sustainable production policies and develop
practical measures for farmers and companies in the agricultural industry |
