This book is a reprint of the Special Issue Scientific Advancements for an Innovative Agri-Food Supply Chain towards the 2030 Sustainable Development Goals III that was published in
A year after (two years from the beginning), with the completion of this third Special Issue on the Innovative Agri-food Supply Chain (IAFSC), the world is still changing, with serious regional troubles and disputes drastically affecting the global economy and growth. Innovation plays a vital role in modernizing the AFSC towards the 2030 sustainable development goals (SDGs) agenda set by United Nations in 2015 to achieve a sustainable future. Among other things, SDGs provide a basis to end poverty, eradicate hunger, protect the planet, and improve quality of life in the word, ensuring a balance between social, economic, and environmental sustainability.
In this special edition, selected papers on the prospects, challenges, and sustainability of the Innovative AFSC in the new global economy are presented. The driving force of the chain remains, no doubt, the end users of the food, namely, the consumers. The topic of this Special Issue includes modern, state-of-the-art research topics on the subjects of the “primary sector” (five papers), “innovative foods” (one paper), food waste management (three papers), “consumers’ and stakeholders” perceptions of foods (four papers), and food diets (one paper). Overall, a total of 14 papers are presented in this issue.
