Key points

The scheme has successfully raised awareness about healthy eating, but its reach is limited by a lack of funding.
The COVID-19 pandemic significantly reduced the number of participating children and disrupted educational activities like farm visits.
A minimum of 10% of total funding should be dedicated specifically to educational programs.
The distribution of products containing added sugars, fats, or salts should be prohibited.
