The Department of Agriculture in collaboration with various partners has unveiled the EPPIC plan, aimed at boosting the consumption of plant-based proteins in the Netherlands to 50% by 2030. The plan includes strategies to increase the yields of high-protein crops like soybeans, peas, field beans, and lupins, and to enhance their disease resistance. The plan also emphasizes the need for the food industry to shift from imported soybeans to Dutch legumes and for consumers to adjust their food preferences. The plan seeks funding of EUR 96 million from the National Growth Fund, in return, it is projected to generate economic growth of EUR 2.6 billion annually. Additionally, the plan aims to reduce greenhouse gas emissions and nitrogen compounds, and decrease the land used for feeding the Dutch by 7%.

The Department of Agriculture has developed a plan entitled "Economically Driven Protein Transformation Through Chain Innovation" (EPPIC) with Wageningen University & Research (WUR), Southern Farmers and Gardeners Association (ZLTO), management consultancy Larive International and developed by Next Food Collective. Increasing yields According to WUR, the share of plant-based protein in the total protein intake of the Dutch will increase to 50% by 2030. This would be twice the current consumption. Implementing the plan will help meet national climate goals, reduce nitrate and ammonia pollution, and slow deforestation. The current pace of replacing animal protein with plant protein is insufficient. According to the university, it is important to economically grow high-protein crops such as soybeans, peas, field beans and lupins. To achieve this, it would be necessary to increase yields and improve plant resistance to diseases. Change of food assortment The university emphasizes that ...
