EU Rural Review 22 addresses the topic of ‘Smart and Competitive Food and Drink Supply Chains’. It focuses on opportunities to improve the competitiveness of primary producers by better integrating them into the agri-food supply chain.
The publication provides an overview of the opportunities for adding value in the supply chains and explores current market opportunities. It stresses the importance of strategies for supporting smarter supply chains using effective links with research and the Rural Development Programmes (RDPs).
EU Rural Review 22 will be translated into French, German, Spanish, Italian and Polish. If you wish to subscribe to receive paper copies, please write to subscribe@enrd.eu specifying the quantity and language required.
A recent ENRD Seminar ‘Changing our Mindsets - Seizing opportunities in the Green Economy’ explored practical ways in which the Rural Development Programmes (RDPs) can build and support green economy projects.
The Seminar was attended by over 75 rural development stakeholders in Brussels on 1 July 2016. It forms part of the wider ENRD thematic work on ‘Promoting the Transition to the Green Economy’, including Thematic Group meetings and forthcoming editions of the EAFRD Projects Brochure and EU Rural Review.
