The main objective of this call for proposals is to support both preparatory and implementation actions for the establishment and development of new ‘European Agri-food Sustainability Cluster Partnerships’ supporting the implementation of the EU Code of Conduct on Responsible Food Business and Marketing Practices by SMEs. The call focuses specifically on boosting the uptake by SMEs of resource-efficiency technologies and countering food inflation in the EU. This call for proposals is targeting food processing SMEs (including food and drink producers) in the middle part of the agri-food value-chain. While acknowledging the importance of working closely with partners, including farmers, primary agricultural producers and the retail part of the agri-food value-chain are not directly targeted by the support of this action.
