Abstract

The objective of this Plan is the development of the organic and biodynamic system. It is adopted as a strategic option not only to strengthen the convenience of the agricultural sector, the profitability of producers in marginal areas, and the strengthening of agricultural employment, but also for the positive external effects such as the fight against climate change, reducing soil and water pollution and safeguarding the health of farmers and consumers. In order to improve the effectiveness of the support that organic farming provides to the environment, to the structure of the supply chain and the distribution system, the Plan supports specific training for territories, cultures and farms, so as to mainstream the agroecological approach. The actions outlined in this Plan cover the period from 2015 to 2020.
