The signatories highlight that Europe is facing increasing global competition and that stronger investment in research, development and innovation (RD&amp;I) is essential to boost productivity, support sustainable growth, and advance Europe’s green and digital transitions.</p>\n\n\n\n<p>The declaration notes that the recent <a href=\"https://commission.europa.eu/topics/competitiveness/draghi-report_en\">Draghi report on European competitiveness</a> identified innovation as a key driver for restoring Europe’s economic strength and closing the growing innovation gap with global competitors. According to the signatories, FP10 remains the EU’s most important instrument for supporting collaborative research, accelerating innovation and building cross-border partnerships that no single Member State could deliver alone.</p>\n\n\n\n<p>Together, the 86 organisations call on EU institutions to:</p>\n\n\n\n<ul><li>Allocate a substantially increased budget to FP10 for the 2028–2034 period;</li><li>Strengthen collaborative and industry-driven research and innovation activities through a reinforced Pillar II;</li><li>Ensure that FP10, together with the European Competitiveness Fund (ECF), supports the full innovation journey from fundamental research to market deployment and scale-up.</li></ul>\n\n\n\n<p>The signatories stress that decisions taken in the coming months on the future EU budget will shape Europe’s ability to innovate, compete globally and maintain its prosperity for years to come.</p>\n\n\n\n<p>For the plant breeding and seed sector, a strong and well-funded FP10 is essential to enable the development of innovative solutions that help agriculture respond to climate change, increase productivity, strengthen food security and contribute to Europe’s sustainability objectives. Euroseeds supports this call for a bold and well-resourced FP10 and stands ready to contribute to a research and innovation framework that delivers tangible benefits for Europe’s economy, society and environment.</p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong><a href=\"https://euroseeds.eu/app/uploads/2026/07/SHOs-Joint-Statement-on-FP10-Final.pdf\">Read the full joint declaration. </a></strong></p>\n\n\n\n<p></p>\n","path":"/news/euroseeds-joins-85-european-organisations-in-calling-for-an-ambitious-fp10-to-strengthen-europes-competitiveness/","slug":"euroseeds-joins-85-european-organisations-in-calling-for-an-ambitious-fp10-to-strengthen-europes-competitiveness","type":"news","classes":"post-5539 news type-news status-publish has-post-thumbnail hentry tag-research tag-plant-breeding-innovation entry","date":"July 7, 2026","ancestors":[{"link":"https://euroseeds.eu/news/","label":"News"},{"link":"https://euroseeds.eu/news/euroseeds-joins-85-european-organisations-in-calling-for-an-ambitious-fp10-to-strengthen-europes-competitiveness/","label":"Euroseeds joins 85 European organisations in calling for an ambitious FP10 to strengthen Europe’s competitiveness"}],"wordpress_id":5539,"tags":[{"name":"Research"},{"name":"Plant breeding innovation"}],"related_news_section":{"options":{"title":"Related News","read_more_button_label":"Read More"},"items":[]},"featured_media":{"localFile":{"childImageSharp":{"mobile":{"base64":"data:image/png;base64,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","aspectRatio":1.4109589041095891,"src":"/static/a54019cdf56ae7ba4a1501b79e8cbea8/cecdc/FP10-joint-statement.png","srcSet":"/static/a54019cdf56ae7ba4a1501b79e8cbea8/0d590/FP10-joint-statement.png 103w,\n/static/a54019cdf56ae7ba4a1501b79e8cbea8/f2f4e/FP10-joint-statement.png 206w,\n/static/a54019cdf56ae7ba4a1501b79e8cbea8/cecdc/FP10-joint-statement.png 413w,\n/static/a54019cdf56ae7ba4a1501b79e8cbea8/0d032/FP10-joint-statement.png 619w,\n/static/a54019cdf56ae7ba4a1501b79e8cbea8/648e4/FP10-joint-statement.png 826w,\n/static/a54019cdf56ae7ba4a1501b79e8cbea8/20ae2/FP10-joint-statement.png 6250w","sizes":"(max-width: 413px) 100vw, 413px"},"desktop":{"base64":"data:image/png;base64,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","aspectRatio":1.4174757281553398,"src":"/static/a54019cdf56ae7ba4a1501b79e8cbea8/be1c5/FP10-joint-statement.png","srcSet":"/static/a54019cdf56ae7ba4a1501b79e8cbea8/5fc96/FP10-joint-statement.png 146w,\n/static/a54019cdf56ae7ba4a1501b79e8cbea8/06599/FP10-joint-statement.png 290w,\n/static/a54019cdf56ae7ba4a1501b79e8cbea8/be1c5/FP10-joint-statement.png 580w,\n/static/a54019cdf56ae7ba4a1501b79e8cbea8/cec77/FP10-joint-statement.png 870w,\n/static/a54019cdf56ae7ba4a1501b79e8cbea8/debb9/FP10-joint-statement.png 1160w,\n/static/a54019cdf56ae7ba4a1501b79e8cbea8/20ae2/FP10-joint-statement.png 6250w","sizes":"(max-width: 580px) 100vw, 580px","presentationHeight":410}}}}}},"pageContext":{"id":"99c4dd9f-da1d-5242-830d-e752f524d622","yoast_meta":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO Premium plugin v15.9 -
