The bioeconomy covers all sectors of our economy

that rely on renewable biological resources,

and the ecosystems they come from.

It includes agriculture,

forestry,

fisheries and aquaculture,

as well as the industries that produce food,

feed,

materials,

energy

and services from these resources.

The EU, through its Bioeconomy Strategy,

is committed to ensuring that

the bioeconomy’s economic and social benefits

go hand in hand with healthy ecosystems.

For us, and for future generations.

Together we can shape a sustainable and circular bioeconomy

where biological resources are sourced,

used and reused responsibly

A bioeconomy that can contribute

to the United Nation’s Sustainable Development Goals…

and to the European Green Deal,

helping Europe to become the first climate-neutral continent by 2050.

To help achieve its objectives,

the European Commission has launched

a Bioeconomy Monitoring System.

This new system provides comprehensive,

robust and reliable information

to monitor all areas of the bioeconomy.

It is available online, with interactive dashboards,

allowing anyone to track the bioeconomy’s progress

towards environmental, societal

and economic sustainability in the EU and its Member States.

Active engagement of experts from EU Member States,

academia and international organisations

will ensure that the Monitoring System

remains a functional and up-to-date tool.

So that the bioeconomy contributes effectively

to the European Green Deal

and the EU’s commitments to the Sustainable Development Goals.
