The document discusses the opportunities for digitalization across the food value chain to address challenges like environmental impact, food waste, and inefficiencies. It notes that digital technologies could help optimize resource usage, connect actors across the supply network, and generate a $4 trillion revenue opportunity by 2020. However, realizing this potential will require innovative solutions and strategies to digitally transform processes from farm to fork.

2. Too complex challenges to be solved by individual
actors in the food system alone
Societal challenges
• Rapid urbanization
• Sky rocketing demand for varied & nutritious diet
• Loss of valuable food producing land (climate change)
• Food waste
Challenges in the food system
• Complex fragmented structure
• Lack of consumer trust
• Limited innovation
• Slow adoption of emerging tech
• Traditional balance of power
between players changes radically

• New ways of working
9. EIT Food Innovation programmes
Empower consumers to self-monitor lifestyle and
health performance and enable informed healthier decisions and
sustainable consumption habits
Consumer-centric “fork-to-farm” approaches
to deliver personalized healthy food
at economies-of-scale associated with mass production
Digitalisation of the food system to boost a demand-driven,
resource-efficient food production and build trust by increasing
traceability and auditability of food quality, safety and authenticity
Transforming today’s linear “produce-use-dispose” model
into a circular bio-economy centered around the consumer

THE WEB OF FOOD
• Catalysing digitalization of the food system
• Exploring system solutions by applying Industry 4.0
• Demand-specific production and packaging
• Sensor technologies, adaptive learning process-control systems
• Test beds to evaluate digital food supply networks, incl. logistics smart packaging,
linking consumer demands
• Using “blockchain technology”
• Data brokerage, industrial data exchange services
• Integration of recycling measures (save water, energy, material)
• Traceability and auditability of food quality, safety, and authenticity
11. Overcome low consumer trust & enhance transparency
• Transparency is increasingly demanded by consumers towards the food supply
system and its products
• Virtual Reality changes the interaction with the consumer by creating
multisensory experiences
• Augmented Reality creates portals for consumers to access digital content
• Social Media, opinion leaders and new media channels dominate the interaction
with target audiences, but can be difficult to control and steer
• Data privacy concerns of consumers can harm the acceptance of new
technologies
• New technologies and distribution channels, such as Amazon becoming more
dominant in the growing online grocery shopping market

Build a consumer-centric connected food system
Provide a fully integrated digital supply network
Improve food system transparency and integrity
• Precision Farming improving yield, sustainability especially in primary production
• Optimised connected food system using real-time data, machine-to-machine
communication and Industry Internet of Things (IIoT)
• Robotics and automation at all parts of the supply system
• Blockchain technology / traceability for better supply chain collaboration and
improved transparency for the consumers
• Digital Twin for food manufacturing for e.g. product tracking and verification

The blockchain
More than bitcoin.
Ian Roberts, CTO Bühler
A blockchain is…
• A Tamper-proof mechanism
of transaction verification
• Without need for transaction
verification by trusted third
party
• Fully transparent and
inherently back-traceable
• Without single point of
failure
• Becoming more resilient to
attacks as it grows
Application opportunities…
• Quality Control
• Authenticity verification
• Creating a fully transparent
and traceable grain value
chain
