We humans have selected & crossbred plants🌱 for millennia⤵️
Now we can do it quicker & be more precise with new genomic techniques!
They can help us grow celiac-safe wheat, allergen-free foods or disease resistant crops 👉 https://europa.eu/!YwMtXv

Nearly 59 million tonnes of food are wasted in the EU each year.
Today, we are proposing that Member States reduce food waste by 2030 (vs 2020) by:
1⃣0⃣% in processing & manufacturing
3⃣0⃣% (jointly) in retail, restaurant, food services and households.

Re In the EU, over 60% of food waste is generated at consumption - to be clear: at the level of consumers.
This is not acceptable.
That is why we discussed today solutions, tools and key learnings with the members of the European Consumer Food Waste Forum.
