📢 New JRC study explores the economic impacts of stronger alignment of production standards for imported agricultural products, including reduced pesticide MRLs. The work was initially launched as an ACT4CAP27 fast-track scenario. 🔗 tinyurl.com/548auphz #ACT4CAP27 #EUAgriPolicy #Agriculture
📢 Save the date! We’re bringing stakeholders together in Brussels on 14 October 2026 to discuss ACT4CAP27’s preliminary results on baseline assumptions, indicators and scenarios. 📍 Brussels | 🤝 In person #ACT4CAP27 #CAP #EUAgri
📢 Save the date! Join the #ACT4CAP27 Thematic Webinar on the Digitalisation & Competitiveness Fast-Track Scenario on 22 Sept, 10:00–12:30 CEST, online. Explore preliminary results and help us refine the modelling. Moderated by European Commission JRC colleagues. #EUagriculture #CAP

Meet the #ACT4CAP27 #AMYRN Fellows 👇 Thijs de Lange (WSER) ➝ UCL Completed an exchange at University College London developing a dietary health–economic framework linking DALYs, productivity and health costs, supporting WP2. 🧐👉https://tinyurl.com/23z9594x
Meet the #ACT4CAP27 #AMYRN Fellows 👇 Simone Di Loreto (Uni Roma Tre) ➝ WSER Started a six-month exchange at Wageningen Social & Economic Research (WSER) focusing on improving fertiliser representation in MAGNET, supporting WP3 and WP6. 🧐👉https://tinyurl.com/23z9594x
Meet the #ACT4CAP27 #AMYRN Fellows 👇 Maria Schubring (UCL) ➝ EC JRC Seville Completed a 4-month exchange, developing post-model health impact calculations linking CAPRI & MAGNET outputs to dietary scenarios. 🧐👉https://tinyurl.com/23z9594x
Meet the #ACT4CAP27 AMYRN Fellows 👉3️⃣fellowships have been awarded so far #AMYRN supports PhD candidates and early-career researchers working with models. Through research stays at partner institutes, it strengthens modelling capacity for agricultural policy analysis. #CapacityBuilding
🌱Can #ClimatePolicy for fertiliser production reduce agricultural emissions? New OA study from #ACT4CAP27 colleagues finds that #CBAM + EU ETS reforms could reduce EU agricultural emissions by 22 Mt CO₂-eq & fertiliser use by 22%, with limited carbon leakage. 🔗 act4cap27.eu/new-oa-cbam/ @thuenen.de
ACT4CAP27 WP6 update: our digitalization scenario is moving fast — AI-powered literature screening, indicator consolidation with BrightSpace by mid-June, and a multi-model publication in the works. Expert validation workshop planned for early autumn. tinyurl.com/36cm532a
Thank you to all participants for the rich discussion today 🙌 Your contributions will help shape evidence-based EU agri-food policy for the future. Stay tuned for outputs & next events! #ACT4CAP27
Next steps👇 ✔️ Refine Sugar Tax & Biodiversity scenarios ✔️ Integrate feedback into modelling ✔️ Feed results into the ACT4CAP27 Interactive Roadmap
Wrapping up the #ACT4CAP27 workshop. Key takeaway: Stakeholder insights are essential to ensure models reflect real-world constraints, behaviours, and opportunities. #EUAgriFood

🎬#ACT4CAP27 stakeholder workshop now: Across both sessions, one theme stands out: 👉 Trade-offs are unavoidable — but they can be better managed with robust modelling + stakeholder input. #ACT4CAP27 #FoodSystems
Stakeholders are weighing in on a core question: 👉 What level of trade-off between production and biodiversity is acceptable? No one-size-fits-all answer — context is key. #PolicyDesign
What makes biodiversity measures viable? 💶 Compensation mechanisms 🌍 Carbon revenues 📜 Market-based tools (e.g. biodiversity credits) Design matters as much as ambition. #GreenDeal #ACT4CAP27

In the Biodiversity session: unpacking trade-offs between environmental ambition and agricultural production. How far can policy go — and at what cost? #Biodiversity #CAPPost2027
Key discussion point👇 Short-term vs long-term impacts: 📉 Immediate production losses? 📈 Long-term system resilience & ecosystem gains? Stakeholder perspectives vary. #Sustainability

Stakeholders highlight broader implications of a sugar tax: ⚖️ Distributional effects across income groups 🌾 Impacts on sugar beet farmers 🔁 Role of policy in supporting transitions #JustTransition #EUAgriFood
A central modelling challenge👇 If substitution between sugar and alternatives is underestimated, impacts on consumption — and EU sugar beet production — may be overstated. Stakeholder insight is crucial here. #AgriModelling
