Deliverable D6.1 CORE Organic Pleiades network roadmap to 2030 and EU-level recommendations for better alignment of transnational R&I investments

The present document reflects an important turning point in the work of CORE Organic Pleiades Network (CO) that is a continuation of previous four network programme periods implemented under the European Commission’s European Research Area Network (ERA-NET) funding scheme since 2004. Two decades of active transnational cooperation among European ministries and research councils resulted in 8 joint transnational research calls, totalling EUR 61.9 million for organic food and farming research projects. Following the EC decision to end the ERA-NET funding scheme under the Horizon Europe R&I Framework Programme, the CORE Organic (CO) network partners developed further coordination and networking activities as a part of the OrganicTargets4EU project. Under the Green Deal organic targets, the CO network objective is to maintain policy exchange and ensure specific focus on transnational coordination for organic food and farming research at the European level and beyond. Based on this CO network objective, in the present deliverable, we have included the CORE Organic Pleaides Network Roadmap to 2030 with an Action Plan 2025-2026, the list of committed network members, and at last national, regional, and EU-level recommendations for better alignment of transnational cooperation and R&I investments.
