- An EEA study projects the impact on agriculture due to climate change in Europe and the rest of the world. The effects are slated to be felt on cultivation conditions, trade, production, regional markets and prices.
- The study utilizes information on global climate change impacts, the EU’s import profile and evidence of products’ vulnerability to climate change, to analyze the effects on Europe’s agricultural trade.
- Trading with other countries by using their domestic environmental policy implementation and diversification of import portfolio, as the key criteria, will help reduce the risk of supply chain disruption.
- Policies that promote a reduction in the demand of products that are a strain on the environment are recommended by the EEA study.
