>> The European Technology Platform (ETP) 'Plants for the Future' is a stakeholder forum for the plant sector, including plant genomics and biotechnology, that was initiated by the European Commission in 2003.
>> It provides a 20-year vision and a short-, medium- and long-term Strategic Research Agenda (SRA) for Europe's plant sector setting out a consensus on the research needed to fulfil the vision.
>> Since August 2007 the Plant ETP is a membership based ETP where all members agreed on the aim, main tasks, structure and budget (including their own contributions) of the ETP for a three year period (2008-2010).
>> The final version of SRA was launched at the European Parliament in June 2007. The SRA identifies five challenges for Europe's society and economy to which the plant sector can contribute: 
- Healthy, safe and sufficient food and feed
- Plant-based products - chemical and bioenergy
- Sustainable agriculture, forestry and landscape
- Vibrant and competitive basic research
- Consumer choice and governance
