Resumen
In December 2019 the EU Commission presented the European Green Deal as directly connected with the Commission’s strategy to implement the United Nation’s 2030 Agenda. More recently, the Communication from the Commission of 20 May 2020 on the Farm to Fork Strategy strengthened further the efforts for building a fair, healthy and environmentally-friendly food system. The EU Common Agricultural Policy (CAP) 2021- 2027 is intended to play a key supporting role for climate change mitigation and adaptation of agriculture as well as environmental protection. The paper considers how the recent communications of the EU Commission address the issue of sustainable farming and food system against climate vulnerability while ensuring food security. It evaluates the relationships among the EU sustainable development strategy, the revised CAP and the EU transition pathways to climate resilience.
