Title (in English):
EIP-AGRI Focus Group on Innovative Short Food Supply Chain Management: Final report
Publication abstract (in original language):
This final report summarises the findings of the EIP-AGRI Focus Group on Innovative Short Food Supply Chain (SFC) Management, which was launched under the European Innovation Partnership for Agricultural Productivty and Sustainability (EIP-AGRI). The Focus Group brought together 20 experts with different backgrounds and experiences (scientists, farmers, advisers,...) to identify the main needs or instruments required to implement SFCs which can increase farm incomes; to highlight the factors that currently hamper scaling up and to make recommendations for solutions to the problems. The report focuses on setting up and getting support for collaborative activities in which more than one farmer, food producer, organisation or individual agree to work together to develop short food chains for mutual benefit.
