EU meat, wine and sugar output seen waning in decade ahead

The European Union is expected to produce less meat, wine, and sugar due to health, environment, and animal welfare concerns. The EU will focus on growing more protein crops like soybeans and pulses. The production of cereals and oilseeds will be limited by climate change and pesticide restrictions. Meat production in the EU is projected to decrease by almost 5%, with a significant decline in beef and pork output. Additionally, there will be a decrease in per capita consumption of beef and pork.
