In the current tense EU agricultural context and the increased international pressure, farmers struggle to ensure stable incomes. At the same time, the EU is at a crossroads in delivering on its climate and energy commitments, particularly in the transport sector, which remains one of the hardest to decarbonise. The production of intermediate crops for biofuels offers a market-driven solution that generates additional revenue while supporting the EU’s commitments to decarbonisee aviation. Intermediate crops have emerged as a scalable and immediately available solution, while farmers need to explore additional and reliable sources of income. This event aims to highlight the strategic role of intermediate crops in supporting transport decarbonisation, strengthening agricultural competitiveness, and diversifying farmers’ revenues.
