Making Food Supply Chains more Sustainable

Project description

Agricultural supply chain optimisation

Deforestation and water stress have a negative impact on agricultural supply chains, preventing agribusiness and food companies from becoming more sustainable. Advanced technology such as the Copernicus programme provides precise, timely and easily accessible data that improve environmental management and mitigate climate change effects. The EU-funded LAND GRIFFON project will develop digital decision-making instruments based on Copernicus data to observe, prognose, analyse and follow environmental impacts on the entire agricultural supply chain. These innovative instruments will support agribusiness and food enterprises in becoming more sustainable and transparent.

Objective

We aim to build digital decision-making tools based on Copernicus data to monitor, forecast, analyse and track tools environmental impacts such as deforestation or water stress all along the supply chains. These new innovative tools will help food and agribusiness companies to transform their existing supply chain models becoming more sustainable and transparent.
