全球粮食安全与营养论坛 (FSN论坛)

Are there any additional areas not yet included in the brief that warrant particular attention with regard to logistics affecting the food supply chain?  

The Covid-19 lockdown opened the oppoertunity for trying something new which could be new normal post covid. There could be some discussion on new initiatives which were thought  of and tried by different organizations. For instance, we started in a very limited way, a programme: HARVEST YOUR OWN VEGETABLES, wherein, we asked consumers to harvest their requirement  of vegetables from the farm ( https://www.aesanetwork.org/field-notes-10-harvest-your-vegetables-at-a… ). Likewise, there were several initiatives taken by communities and Farmer Producer Organizations which came to the rescue of farmers by channeling their farm produce to consumers. The government allowed farmers to sell their produce directly to consumers by amending the APMC act which was restrictive previously ( https://economictimes.indiatimes.com/news/economy/agriculture/states-to…). Some FPOs used apps for uninterpreted vegetable supply during lock down ( http://agrospectrumindia.com/news/26/607/fpo-uses-app-for-uninterpreted… ). Many ideas cropped up to ease of marketing of farm products ( https://thewire.in/agriculture/farmers-covid-19-lockdown-india-relief-m… ).
