Multi-agent Agri-food living labs for new supply chain Mediterranean systems

The main objective of LAB4SUPPLY is to provide practical solutions to address the current difficulties of Mediterranean smallholders and traditional farmers, who face the main challenges that arise in the Agri-food value chain.
The Project will offer innovative and viable solutions and opportunities to allow local smallholders to increase their competitiveness and profitability, using optimised agri-food supply chain and improving adaptation capacity to unexpected market changes, which at the same time are better perceived by the consumers.
The project will empower agri-food smallholders in the Mediterranean through the definition, enhancement and transfer of competitive and efficient food supply chain alternatives.
