Proposal for a REGULATION OF THE EUROPEAN PARLIAMENT AND OF THE COUNCIL on the Farm Sustainability Data Network (codification)
This proposal is for an EU regulation codifying the rules on the Farm Sustainability Data Network.

The European Parliament and the Council are being asked to adopt a codified regulation that consolidates the existing Farm Sustainability Data Network rules without changing their substance.
The proposal mainly concerns the European Parliament, the Council, the Commission and the Member States’ Farm Sustainability Data Network data collectors.
The Commission proposes codification because the existing rules have been amended repeatedly and are no longer easy to read in one place.
The proposal applies across the European Union to the Farm Sustainability Data Network and its links with Member State data systems.
The file is a Commission proposal dated 29 July 2026 and is still at proposal stage, not adopted law.
It would work by replacing the fragmented, amended text with one consolidated regulation adopted through the ordinary legislative procedure.
