Understanding food value chain and network dynamics

The overall objective of the project is to provide decision makers throughout food value chains with a comprehensive suite of approaches and tools that will enable them to evaluate the impact of strategic and operational policies to enhance the resilience, fairness, integrity, efficiency and sustainability of food value chains for European countries.

Develop, and analyse the suitability of approaches and tools to analyse the structure, dynamics, resilience and impact of food chains on food security, economic development and the environment. Develop an integrated modelling approach of food value chains and demonstrate options for improved business strategies. Build foresight scenarios to reflect on the possible evolution of those food chains.
