While not new, livestock disease, such as peste des petits ruminants (PPR) and foot and mouth disease (FMD) have recently been reported into new areas. This spread to previously disease-free areas is concerning and threatens livestock and human livelihoods. We take a deeper look.

An insightful visit to a 🇧🇪 farm today to learn about their ‘Renure’ (nutrient stripping) facilities offering a sustainable, circular & local source of fertiliser. An alternative to chemical fertiliser, it is an opportunity to shift reliance from imported fertilisers e.g from🇷🇺

Today ELV partners met with Alisa Tiganj, a key member of Commissioner Christophe Hansen cabinet. It was a great opportunity for the partners to present ELV and explain that it was created in 2019 to communicate science-based facts around European #livestock and its value chain.

Commissioner Christophe Hansen opened #EUagrivision with a strong message on livestock: a strategic, essential sector. He used examples from Finland and Lithuania, where short cropping seasons make #livestock vital for rural areas. “I don’t want revolution, but meaningful evolutions.”

"Ultraprocessed novel plant-based foods generally showed higher contamination levels [of organophosphate flame retardants and plasticizers], leading to a higher dietary exposure in a vegan diet scenario"

Despite the Commission’s recognition of #RENURE, the current regulatory framework continues to restrict RENURE under the #NitratesDirective. Sectors unite to call on decision-makers to not miss out on a key sustainable fertilisers solution👇 meatthefacts.eu/home/activity/…
