  3. Commission proposal 2005 7 years; €70 billion Revision by Council and Parliament General support, but: budgetary limits general amendments specific issues, such as research on human stem cells Expecting finalisation December 2006 Budget € 54 billion (1935 Mio€ for Food, agriculture and biotechnology) First work-programme end December 2006 Towards FP7

  4. Framework Programme 7 2007 – 2013 Cooperation – Collaborative research Ideas – Frontier Research People – Human Potential Capacities – Research Capacity + JRC (non-nuclear) JRC (nuclear) Euratom

  5. Emphasis on research themes rather than on “instruments” Significant simplification of its operation Focus on developing research that meets the needs of European industry, through the work of Technology Platforms and the new Joint Technology Initiatives Establishment of a European Research Council, funding the best of European science Integration of International cooperation in all four programmes Development of Regions of Knowledge A Risk-Sharing Finance Facility aimed at fostering private investment in research New elements in FP7

  6. Ideas – Frontier Research ERC – European Research Council Commission Scientific Council • Preparation of work-programmes • Organisation of peer review Approval of work-programmes and interaction with the programme committees Externalised tasks Management of the project cycle

  7. People– Human Potential Initial training of researchers Marie Curie Networks Life-long training and career development Individual Fellowships Co-financing of regional/national/international programmes Industry-academia pathways and partnerships Industry-Academia Scheme International dimension Outgoing International Fellowships; Incoming International Fellowships International Cooperation Scheme; Reintegration grants Specific actions Excellence awards

  8. 1. Research Infrastructures 2. Research for the benefit of SMEs 3. Regions of Knowledge 4. Research Potential 5. Science in Society 6. Activities of International Cooperation Capacities – Research Capacity

  9. Under each theme there will be flexibility to address emerging needs and unforeseen policy needs Dissemination of knowledge and transfer of results will be supported in all thematic areas Support will be implemented across all themes through: Cooperation – Collaborative research Collaborative research (Collaborative projects; Networks of Excellence; Coordination/support actions) Joint Technology Initiatives Coordination of non-Community research programmes (ERA-NET; ERA-NET+; Article 169) International Cooperation

  10. Cooperation – Collaborative research 9 Themes • Health • Food, agriculture and biotechnology • Information and communication technologies • Nanosciences, nanotechnologies, materials and new production technologies • Energy • Environment (including climate change) • Transport (including aeronautics) • Socio-economic sciences and the humanities • Security and space

  11. Cooperation – Collaborative research Theme 2 • Health • Food, agriculture and biotechnology • Information and communication technologies • Nanosciences, nanotechnologies, materials and new production technologies • Energy • Environment (including climate change) • Transport (including aeronautics) • Socio-economic sciences and the humanities • Security and space

  12. 2. Food, Agriculture and Biotechnology Sustainable production and management of biological resources from land, forest, and aquatic environments “Fork to farm”: Food, health and well being Life sciences and biotechnology for sustainable non-food products and processes

  14. Annual turnover ca €1 668 billion Food: €850b Agriculture: €210b Fisheries and aquaculture: €8b Paper/pulp: €400b Forestry/wood: €150b Industrial biotechnology: €50b The bio-economy is large….

  15. Climate and environment Global warming; extreme weather; drought; biodiversity; sustainable fisheries; water and soil quality Social change and rural development Demographics; lifestyle and consumer demand; attitudes to new technologies; changing use of countryside Health Obesity, allergies, zoonoses Economy and trade Globalisation; CAP/CFP Research structures Converging technologies; multidisciplinarity …. but faces significant challenges

  16. Need to prioritise • “More with less” • Theme 2 FP7 “Food, Agriculture, Biotechnology” has broader scope than priority 5 “Food Quality&Safety” of FP6 (added activity 3 on biotech products and processes for non-food applications) • Research to support policies, international cooperation and coordination of national research is integrated into the themes • Budget for first calls of theme 2 - FP7 comparable (or lower) than for priority 5 - FP6 • Need to prioritise along the following criteria: • New areas/topics not (little) covered in previous FPs. • Continue/follow-up on successful EU research activities in order to achieve maximum impact. • Preparatory actions for identifying priority topics/activity areas for future calls, i.e. analysis of certain research/technology options for addressing specific goals

  17. Consultation and external input • Input into work programme from: • Advisory Group of this theme • the research community, • interested organisations (EFSA, etc.) • Standing Committee for Agricultural Research (SCAR) • expert workshops, outputs from conferences • studies, analysis of ongoing research, • policy needs (other Commission directorates) • strategic research agendas (SRA) of the European Technology Platforms relevant to Theme 2(Plants for the Future; Sustainable Farm Animal Breeding and Reproduction; Global Animal Health; Food for Life; Forestry; Biofuels; the Industrial Biotechnology section of the Sustainable Chemistry Platform)

  18. 2. Food, Agriculture and Biotechnology Sustainable production and management of biological resources from land, forest, and aquatic environments “Fork to farm”: Food, health and well being Life sciences and biotechnology for sustainable non-food products and processes

  19. Activity 1: Sustainable production and management of biological resources from land, forest and aquatic environments:OBJECTIVES Exploitation of new and emerging technologies Rural contexts, animal welfare Social and economic challenges External threats: climate change Sustainable production Healthier, safer and higher quality foods.
