European foreword
This document has been prepared by Technical Committee CEN/TC 249 “Plastics”, the secretariat of
which is held by SIS.
This document is currently submitted to the CEN Enquiry.
This document has been prepared under a standardization request addressed to CEN by the European
Commission. The Standing Committee of the EFTA States subsequently approves these requests for its
Member States.
Introduction
In recent years, the use of plastic products in agriculture has become a subject of concern due to its impact
on the environment. To address this issue, there is a growing need for a European standard that sets
guidelines in agricultural practices.
The European standardization for agricultural products aims to promote sustainable practices, reduce
plastic waste, and protect the environment. It emphasizes the importance of reducing plastic waste,
improving recycling and reuse methods. Also, it takes into account the entire life cycle of plastic products,
from production to end of use, and encourages the adoption of practices that contribute to a circular
economy, primarily recycling.
One of the key aspects is to encourage farmers and producers to opt for the implementation of collection
and recycling systems specifically designed for agricultural plastic waste, as well as the use of
biodegradable or compostable plastic materials.
The European standardization emphasizes the importance of proper waste management and disposal. It
encourages the establishment of collection points and recycling facilities for agricultural plastic waste,
ensuring that it is processed and recycled in an environmentally responsible manner. Additionally, it
promotes awareness and education among farmers and producers regarding the proper handling and
disposal of plastic products.
Furthermore, the European standardization encourages research and innovation in the field of
sustainable materials. It calls for the development of new technologies and materials that are recyclable,
reusable, biodegradable in soil or in composting and safe for agricultural use. This includes exploring
options such as bio-based materials made from renewable resources or utilizing natural materials that
have minimal impact on the environment.
By implementing these guidelines, farmers and producers will contribute to a more sustainable
agricultural industry that balances the need for plastic products with the preservation of our natural
resources.
