Efficiency and coordination in the EU agri-food systems Simone Severini1* and Alessandro Sorrentino2 * Correspondence: [email protected] 1Department DAFNE, Tuscia University, Viterbo, Italy Full list of author information is available at the end of the article Abstract During the 52nd Conference of the Italian Society of Agricultural Cited by: 2.

For Spain the efficiency gains estimated in Garcia-Santana et al. () are 32% (– average).Cited by: Output price protection and input subsidies – especially fertilizer, pesticides, and irrigation water—provide distorted incentives at the farm level for adopting practices that would enhance efficiency in input use and thereby contribute to sustaining the agricultural resource base. Policy Agenda for Sustainable Food Systems. Food and drink supply chains are complex, continually changing systems, involving many participants. They present stakeholders across the food and drinks industries with considerable challenges. Delivering performance in food supply chains offers expert perspectives to help practitioners and academics to improve their supply chain operations.
1. Higher Efficiency Rate: When your business is able to incorporate supply chains, integrated logistics, and product innovation strategies, you'll be in a great position to not only predict demand as well as to act accordingly. And this is, without any doubt, one of the main supply chain management benefits. The realization of the contribution of peasant agriculture to food security in the midst of scenarios of climate change, economic and energy crisis, led to the concepts of food sovereignty and agroecologically based production systems to gain much attention in the developing world in the last two decades. New approaches and technologies involving application of blended modern agricultural Cited by: Companies expect efficiency gains of a total of 12% over five years: Efficiency gains are the main reason named by almost all (98%) respondents for investing in digital factories.
