35. Agriculture and forestry. The EIB Group will ensure that activities do not expand into areas of high carbon stocks or high biodiversity value. Moreover, given the importance of livestock as a source of emissions, the EIB Group will focus support on meat and dairy industries adopting sustainable animal rearing methods that contribute to improved greenhouse gas emissions efficiency. In addition, given the approach adopted towards the aviation sector, it is proposed to no longer support exportorientated agribusiness models that focus on long-distance air transport for commercialisation. This measure would exclude investments dependent on the international shipping of fresh, perishable agricultural goods through long-haul air cargo.
Focus 8: Farm to fork The food system within Europe is considered to be safe, plentiful and of high quality. It also needs to be sustainable. This is why the European Commission, as part of the European Green Deal, has recently presented a Farm to Fork strategy. It argues that there is an urgent need to reduce dependency on pesticides and antimicrobials, reduce excess fertilisation (especially nitrogen and phosphorous), increase organic farming, improve animal welfare and reverse biodiversity loss. The introduction and successful rollout of sustainable agriculture can help strengthen food security in developing countries, as well as strengthen soil and plant carbon sinks globally.
Given the importance of livestock as a source of emissions, it is proposed to focus support on meat and dairy industries adopting sustainable animal rearing methods that contribute to improved GHG efficiency as compared to best industry standards/benchmarks. For example, this would include investments supporting farm to fork strategies and animals raised organically or cattle under grazing systems. In this context, sustainability refers to a range of impacts: socio-economic, environmental, resource efficiency and animal welfare.
Production of proteins from more sustainable and/or innovative sources or production systems with a lower carbon footprint (e.g. fish, algae, insects) with a focus on animal welfare.
Meat and dairy industries based on production systems that involve unsustainable animal rearing and/or lead to increased GHG emissions as compared to best industry, low-carbon standards/benchmarks88.
