Abstract: This report constitutes a compilation of the principal issues raised by speakers at an online workshop jointly organised by the Joint Research Centre (JRC) together with the Directorate General for Agriculture and Rural Development (AGRI), the Directorate General for Maritime Affairs and Fisheries (MARE) and the Directorate General for Health and Food Safety (SANTE) on the ‘Contingency plan for ensuring food supply and food security’ held on 20 May 2021. The objective of the workshop was to assist in the preparation of the EU contingency plan to ensure the future food supply and food security proposed by the European Commission in its Farm to Fork Strategy. Its aim was to provide insights and technical advice from a scientific perspective as well as examples of good practices on how to prepare, coordinate and respond to unfavourable events that could threaten food security in the EU.
