The EU Agri-Food Days allow stakeholders to discuss the outlook of European agriculture, agricultural market trends, food security, sustainability, digital technologies and data flows together with farmers, EU policy makers, business representatives, analysts and digital experts.

Organised by the EC Directorate-General for Agriculture and Rural Development this event allows participants to reflect on current and upcoming challenges in the European agri-food sector and assess how the common agricultural policy and the EU Green Deal can contribute to deliver a greener, fairer and more competitive agriculture in Europe.
