The Island's food and drink industry could grow by £50 million over the next 10 years.
Tynwald will be asked to approve the new Food Matters strategy which states it could be worth £125 million by 2025.
It already generates £75 million for the Manx economy and supports over 1,300 jobs.
Environment, Food and Agriculture Minister Richard Ronan says it's been in the pipeline for some time:
