Background Future Internet PPP:

Evolution of the Internet

Internet of People / Content

Internet of

Things

Internet of

Services

Internet of Computers

ICT becomes a key driver for innovation

Location-based monitoring and service delivery through GPS

Internet of Things (IoT) – everything/everyone gets connected,

M2M communication leading to autonomously communicating

devices and virtualization of objects and processes

Data explosion (Big Data), linked open data and the potential of

open innovation

Cloud services and app stores – the Internet is everywhere

(smart phones, embedded networked devices, etc.) with new

possibilities for service delivery, augmented reality, etc.

Social media – more direct and instant interaction between

stakeholders potentially leading to new market opportunities and

channels, co-innovation, etc.

Specific characteristics of Agri-Food Supply

Chain Networks

Heterogeneous, dynamic natural conditions (e.g. soil, weather, pests)

Seasonal growing

Natural products: growth, decay, high quality variations

Dynamic, open chains

High demands from consumers and society (legislation, certification, food safety)

High volume distribution

Governance: large processors, many SME’s in global chains

ICT developments in general business

Island

automation

ERP Open architecture

(SOA-BPM)

Smart Food and Agribusiness: Future Internet for Safe and Healthy Food from Farm to Fork

Dr. Sjaak Wolfert (coordinator)

LEI Wageningen UR

e-mail: sjaak.wolfert@wur.nl

www.smartagrifood.eu

• EC contribution 5 M€

• Start date 01.04.2011

• Duration 24 months

• Partners 21

• Countries represented 7

The Smart Agri-Food project aims to:

• Boost the application and use of future internet ICTs in Agri-Food

• Affect a huge number of Agri-Food SMEs throughout Europe

• Increase the competiveness and sustainability of Agri-Food

Objectives Smart Agri-Food (Phase I)

To boost the application and use of future internet ICTs in the agri-food sector by:

• identifying and describing the technical, functional and non-functional FI-specifications for experimentation in smart agri-food production as a whole system and in particular for smart farming, smart agri-logistics and smart food awareness

• identifying and developing smart agri-food-specific capabilities and conceptual prototypes, demonstrating critical technological solutions including the feasibility to further develop them in large scale experimentation and validation

• identifying and describing existing experimentation structures and start user community building, resulting in an implementation plan for the next phase

Objective of the Smart Food Awareness

• To satisfy needs of each consumer by providing transparent and tailored information about agrifood products, using FI.

I am a Royal Gala apple

from south Spain, I was

grown without

pesticides following

organic farming criteria,

I have been here for 1

day, my carbon footprint

is 1,2 kg CO2e.

• Each logo/sign has several criteria that has to accomplish.

Smart Food Awareness: how?

• Product scanning (RFID, barcode ...)

• Image recognition (logos/signs)

• Consumer gets tailored information of the product and/or logo.

• Each product contains information gathered through all supply chain.

• Each consumer defines his/her shopping profile.
