GOVERMENT LAUNCHES MAJOR FOOD FUTURE REPORT
This week Hilary Benn launched Food 2030 which is the Goverment’s plan for the future of the UK food & drink industry. The report is a result of stakeholder consultations which ran in August 2090.
The report will be presented at The Food & Drink Innovation Network’s “Post Copenhagen Action Planning Summit” on 27th January at Daventry Northants. Click here for more information on this vital food & drink industry planning day.
This report is for both consumers and the industry and is about choosing, and affording healthy sustainable food.
The Goverment outlines its plan for the industry to be profitable, highly skilled, competitive and resilient, and covers the food chain from farm to fork.
The report also highlights the need for “first class research and development”.
Themes which run through the reports are:
The sustainable use of global natural resources.
Enabling the continuation of the benefits of a natural environment, and promoting high standards of animal welfare and health.
The protection of food safety.
The support of rural communities.
To be an example of food sustainabilty globally.
