The increasing environmental, social and ethical problems, as well as public awareness of the impact of food production and consumption on the environment, leads to increase pressure of consumer organizations, environmental advocacy groups, policy-makers, and several consumer groups on agri-food companies to introduce systemic solutions throughout the food supply chain ("from farm to fork"). They aim to be safe for the society and be environment friendly. Hence, such supply chains become a particular challenge for logistics.

Topics:

1. Food losses and waste in the agri-food sector
2. Traceability in the food supply chains
3. Sustainable food supply chains
4. Engineering for food security
5. Problems, challenges and trends in food supply chains
