– Implementing BERAS

BERAS Implementation has a solid scientific basis, a strong partnership and supporting network, and co-operates with grassroots entrepreneurs with competence within the whole food chain.

The project develops various concepts and supports practical implementation. This is partly consumer-driven but we also need to change the institutional frameworks. For example agricultural policy should include Ecological Recycling Agriculture (ERA) that is based on local renewable resources.

One of the most important issues is the EU Common Agricultural Policy (CAP).                           

Our task is both to make changes in the framework and to properly understand the opportunities for change in the existing rules and regulations.                                                                                                                                           

Following the above BERAS Implementation offers a dialogue with politicians in order to promote a good environmental status of the Baltic Sea, mitigate adverse climate effects from agriculture, and secure a sustainable and prosperous development in the region.
