The agricultural and food system faces significant challenges related to climate change, sustainable production, and food security. Digital innovation and the adoption of "enabling" technologies offer promising solutions for addressing these challenges. The European Commission's "From Farm to Fork" Strategy and the Common Agricultural Policy (CAP) place digital technology at the forefront of achieving sustainable agri-food systems. The paper aims to analyse the recent European Union policy agenda concerning digitalisation and the adoption of digital technologies in agriculture and food systems to promote sustainability and food security in Europe. It emphasises the significance of appropriate regulation to ensure that the transformative impact of new digital technologies effectively addresses social and environmental challenges while ensuring inclusivity for all stakeholders.
