Ministry of Agriculture Food Security Food
The Russian-Ukrainian conflict, the lingering effects of the COVID-19 pandemic and intensifying climate change are having a major impact on
global food security and world food prices.
Agriculture ministers said that while ensuring sustainability, one of the main solutions to achieving adequate food production is to use innovation, research and modern technologies, including precision agriculture, to further reduce the consumption
of pesticides and fertilizers.

"Although the EU has enough food, the COVID-19 pandemic and the Russian-Ukrainian conflict have deepened the world food crisis
.
We in the EU face a major challenge to sustainably increase agricultural production, reduce food waste and ensure that people around the world have access to quality food

Perhaps it is time to reconsider some of the traditional methods of food production to support new modern technologies," Czech Agriculture Minister Zdeněk Nekula said

Science and innovation
Science and innovation Both Trnka and Dr Roman Hobza said the new trends could help the EU reduce the use of pesticides and fertilizers, as well as help water management or breed new varieties
that are more resistant to extreme weather fluctuations and new plant pests and diseases.
Ministers agreed that the EU must respond to current trends as soon as possible and not hinder innovation
.
It is therefore important to change the outdated legislative framework within which the EU regulates the use of modern plant breeding methods, which not only restricts European growers, but also leads to the exodus of top experts to countries outside the EU, making the losses extraordinary

"Despite the negative impact of the war in Ukraine on food production, commodity markets, energy prices and all of us, as an EU we cannot afford to let it go

We urgently need drought-resistant, frost-resistant, disease- and pest-resistant crops that require fewer pesticides and fertilizers," Nekula said, noting that he was "pleased" that the EU Commissioner for Agriculture made it clear that the European Commission is ready to propose legislation on plant breeding in the short term, which will help solve the current problem

The Solidarity Channel does make sense and we will discuss the possibility of expanding and strengthening it as a separate theme at the Council in Brussels on September 26," Nekula said

EU measures and the current environment
EU measures and the current environment In order to ensure food security in the context of the war in Ukraine, the EU is developing an action plan called the "Solidarity Channel" to promote the export
of Ukrainian goods by land and inland waterways.
In addition, the elimination of tariffs on Ukrainian products imported into the EU helps to solve this problem, for example, goods can be more easily shipped to African countries
.
In addition to providing emergency assistance to the most vulnerable sectors, using as much agricultural land as possible for food production and exempting next year's crop rotation should also help European growers

The EU is also providing financial support
to countries that are currently at the greatest risk.
