Ahead of the EU food initiatives such as the Sustainable food system law, Agroecology Europe proposes to adopt a food system approach on transition and to give more visibility to systemic solutions to transform our agriculture and food and make them more sustainable, healthy, and fair. Among these solutions, increasing the share of legumes in crop rotations and on our plates is a cornerstone of the agroecological transition and should represent a collective strategic effort initiated by ambitious public policies.
