Alternative sources for high added value food and/or feed ingredients

Summary

In line with the Farm to Fork strategy for a fair, healthy and environmentally friendly food system, biodiversity strategy, and the European Green Deal priorities, successful proposals will support the large-scale production of high value food and or feed ingredients from alternative sustainable sources (excluding animal sources), without impacting or regenerating local biodiversity and ecosystems.

Detailed Call Description

Project results are expected to contribute to the following expected outcomes, depending on the choice between focus on food or/and feed ingredients:

  • Availability of premium (i.e., nutritious, healthy, functional and environmentally sustainable) food ingredients meeting consumers’ expectations, including on economic level.
  • Availability of high added value sustainable feed ingredients, ensuring nutritional quality and health and safety profile.
  • Rebalanced ratio between animal and plant-based proteins in human consumption, needed for healthy food supply respecting the planetary boundaries.
  • Contribution to the sustainable food supply for a growing world population (SDG 2 Zero hunger).
  • Increased circularity of biomass resources, and resource efficiency, as confirmed by the LCA assessments, leading to improved EU strategic autonomy via reduction/replacement of imports.
  • Public awareness and acceptance of bio-based solutions.
  • Support market uptake growth and acceptance of scalable bio-based solutions.

Call Total Budget

€14 million

Financing percentage by EU or other bodies / Level of Subsidy or Loan

It is estimated that a contribution of EUR 14 million would allow these outcomes to be addressed appropriately. Nonetheless, this does not preclude submission and selection of a proposal requesting different amounts.
