Sustainability expectations are growing in the agri-food chain. Consumers, governments, manufacturers and retailers are becoming increasingly, although not equally, conscious of where and how products are produced, of the amount of energy, resources, and materials consumed during production, storage and distribution. Increasingly, this means considering the impact of the entire lifecycle of an agri-food product from ?cradle to grave?. The goal of the project is twofold: to understand the impact of supply chain decisions on the use of resources in the agri-food supply chain, and to propose strategies in making agri-food supply chains more resource efficient.
