FEAP welcomes the initiative to introduce targeted amendments to Regulation 2018/848. Despite a supposedly supportive regulatory framework, the fish farming organic sector continues to face significant barriers. As a result, many fish farmers who have bet on organic production have struggled to maintain or expand their organic lines, leading to stagnation or even a noticeable decline in overall output.

FEAP Feedback on the Inclusion of Traditional Freshwater Fish Farming in the EU Nature Credit System The Federation of European Aquaculture Producers (FEAP) strongly supports the European Commissions initiative to create a robust, voluntary Nature Credit system.
This text provides a concise summary of FEAP's contribution. A more detailed version is attached. EU aquaculture has stagnated since 2000, contrasting sharply with rapid global growth that has helped meet FAO food production targets. A 15year strategic vision for the EU is timely and essential as a last effort to secure the sector's longterm competitiveness, relevance, and social viability.
