Some strategic considerations why develop scenarios, and what for? In our view, and following Xxxxxx’s proposal (2009), a foresight study can be considered as a stra- tegic intervention in a future-oriented debate. As such, it is a way to change the conditions under which this debate takes place, which could be done in (at least) two ways. A first one is by intro- ducing stakes / issues that were previously either not considered at all, or misrepresented in the debates. A second one is by improving the accessibility of the discussion for new stakeholders. In our case, the debate related to the future of European agriculture and fisheries, and more par- ticularly the future of primary producers, is already well organized. It is structured around qualita- tive exercises, such as those performed by the Standing Committee on Agricultural Research (SCAR); and (perhaps more importantly) by econometric modelling carried out upon the request of the European Commission to ex-ante assess the relevance and the impact of different policy tools before their implementation. In this context, the scenario exercise proposed here has three main merits. First, it explicitly focuses on the sustainability of primary producers themselves and uses a comprehensive approach to assess sustainability based on the SDG framework, in the wake of the recent communication of the European Commission on the next CAP reform (EC, 2017). This dif- ferentiates our approach from that of most SCAR reports, which reason at the sector level rather than the producer level; and from that of most econometric approaches, in the sense that it con- xxxxxx sustainability in a wide and strong sense. Second, as it is based on an exploration of contrasted “food systems’ narratives” that could occur between now and 2030, this research allows for thinking critically about the relevance and the domain of validity of a broad range of solutions whose impact is often debated ceteris paribus, while the context in which they could be implemented is certainly different from the context that prevails at the moment when they are discussed. Third, the initial set of scenarios presented in this report will be discussed in participative work- shops throughout the year 2018 in a variety of settings and at various levels, ranging from regional / territorial workshops to Brussels-based workshops and through member state-level workshops. Not only will this modus operandi allow us to progressively refine these scenarios by adding com- plexity and integrat...
