Agricultural systems for the future: Co-Ordination and communication (food4future)

Project


Project code: 031B0451
Contract period: 01.12.2017 - 31.12.2019
Budget: 1,744,520 Euro
Purpose of research: Networks and research co-ordination

The food4future project is based on a novel approach: The mega trends – “Designed Food” and “Natural Food” – in their impact as “creative disrupters”, will not only dominate future diets, but also replace traditional agricultural production. This will be done against the background of two profound scenarios – “No Land” and “No Trade”. Challenged by these extreme settings, the overall objective of the F4F project is to develop innovative solutions in the food and agro-sector for the sustainable securing of adequate and healthy nutrition. Within the project, the targeted key technologies – (UV) LED technology and composite lightweight materials – are used to develop innovation approaches up to the proof of concept for “Designed Food” and “Natural Food” and their technical feasibility, their economic and market potential environmental sustainability as well as its social impact.
