Important results from the project
The objective of the project is , in full coordination with the agenda project LivsStrat 2020, develop a well-established R & I agenda for the food valuechain. This objective has been achieved. A longer term aim is to create a basis for a unified SIO application of our value chain. This aim will be met as it is the projectgroups solid ambition to submit an application to the next call for proposals in the autumn of 2013.
Expected long term effects
The project has been fully coordinated with LivsStrat2020. The coordinated project had a good planning and implementation. The collection of leading thoughts have taken place in three workshops where key opinion leaders in the food value chain were invited. The results were analyzed and resulted in a proposal that has been on an extensive round of referrals. Along the way, the work coordinated with other agendas. A final agenda has been written. The Agenda will in the next step be presented more broadly to the food valuechain.
Approach and implementation
The project was coordinated from the start with LivsStrat 2020. At the first project meeting, we agreed on objectives and activity plan for a joint project that has consequently been followed throughout the project. Firstly an information gathering of existing policies was done and an input from opinion leaders in three workshops. The results and conclusions from the data collection formed the basis for the upcoming Agenda production and examination. The draft was circulated in two referral rounds in both academia and industry.
