Questions related to optimal production and processing methods, location (EU or other), health effects, environmental impact, and legal issues remain unanswered. Consumer acceptance of new and/or improved sustainable protein sources, as well as other factors related to market uptake, require further clarification if global food security together with environmental and socio-economic sustainability is to be ensured. Scope: A multidisciplinary approach, covering the whole food supply chain (from ‘farm to fork’) of new and/or existing protein sources should be taken. The market potential for the producer and added value for the consumer should be considered, together with food safety and quality parameters, regulatory issues, health and diet-related risks and benefits, and gender issues. Appropriate dissemination and knowledge uptake activities should be included, as well as industry participation with a specific focus on SMEs. In line with the objectives of the Union’s strategy for international cooperation in research and innovation, proposals are encouraged to include participants from third country27. A sustainability assessment in line with the ILCD handbook28 should be conducted. Proposals should be focused on how new and/or adapted protein sources can provide innovative, cost-effective and resource-efficient alternatives to traditional sources with more positive impacts on human health, the environment and biodiversity. The Commission considers that proposals requesting a contribution from the EU in the range of EUR 9 million would allow this specific challenge to be addressed appropriately. Nonetheless, this does not 09-10-2015 preclude submission and selection of proposals requesting other amounts. Slide 9 Expected impact: A significant increase in the quality of proteins and of the sustainability of their production and processing. A support to EU policies on agriculture, nutrition, health, environment, development and sustainable food security by increased market uptake of existing and/or new proteins that contribute to a healthy diet. A strengthening of international research, industrial cooperation and the EU economy, with a specific focus on SMEs and small-scale food processing. An increase in new market opportunities, in the short and medium term, as measured in terms of market share, turnover, employment and intellectual property. A clear contribution to social innovation due to Fair Trade/fairer trade, as well as an increase in socio-economic and environmental sustainability. 09-10-2015 Slide 10 5 09-10-2015 Procedure Horizon2020 PROTEIN2FOOD 2013: Initiative by Italy and Ireland Small workshop Change of coordinator Feb. 2014: Full workshop Proposal phase 1 June 2014: Proposal phase 2 ISAFOM 09-10-2015 Slide 11 Other EU projects EU FP7 Sustainable water use securing food production in dry areas of the Mediterranean region (SWUP-MED).

Accelerate protein transition from animal-based protein to plant based protein in Europe with clear impact on reduction of carbon footprint. Increase EU agro-biodiversity by introducing promising high quality crops and legumes. Prototypes of new protein-rich protein food with exceptional market potential. Improve the EU’s visibility in the area of food processing and technology through high impact factors scientific publications. 10 09-10-2015 Crop Crop Quinoa Faba bean Amaranth Lupin Buckwheat Chickpea Pea Lentil Enhedens navn Key indicators Country Italy Romania Netherlands Denmark Crop Quinoa Amaranth Legumes Quinoa Lupin Faba bean Quinoa Lupin Lentil Year 1, ha 1 1 1 1 2,5 3 1 1 1 Year 5, ha 40 20 50 15 2,5 30 15 15 4 •EU protein production + 20% •Animal protein consumption -10% •Protein crop production +10% Sted og dato Dias 22 11 09-10-2015 Dissemination of project results Communication channels 1.
