Project aim:
BIOVALUE - Fork to farm Agent Based simulation tool augmenting BIOdiversity in the agri-food VALUE-chain is a research project supported by the European Union in the framework of the Horizon 2020 program. It aims to analyze the link between genetic diversity, food supply chain, environment, consumer preferences and health in order to increase crop biodiversity.  This project brings together 17 partners in 12 countries. The pilot crops studied are: buckwheat, lentil and peas and beans, tomato, eggplant, cucumber and sow thistle.

Activities of ECOZEPT:
ECOZEPT is responsible for different tasks:
(1) development of a framework for analyzing the impact of food value chains (from farmers to consumers) on cultivated biodiversity (2) assessment of consumer perception. We are also responsible for Work Package 9 on product certification and labelling. We are involved in various other tasks (development of innovative products, cultivation of genetic diversity on pilot sites and improvement of the links between biodiversity and food chains via the BIOVALUE tool).

Logistics and commercial mutualization training

ADEAR 37 is supporting a group of 15 producers who wish to pool their production efforts. As part of this initiative, ECOZEPT contributed its expertise by presenting the principles of mutualization along with several concrete case studies. The goal was to broaden participants’ understanding of the various forms such a collaborative project can take. The training aimed to spark collective reflection on the challenges and opportunities of mutualization, grounded in real-world examples.

Food Costing and internalisation of Externalities for System Transition

Current food systems don’t reflect the true costs of food. In order to achieve sustainable food systems, the project’s objective is to develop tools, business models and policies to measure and value positive and negative external costs of food. By internalising climate, biodiversity, environmental, social and health externalities, these costs are going to be reflected in market prices and thus in the decision making of actors in food value chains. FOODCoST (Food Costing and internalisation of Externalities for System Transition) will guide business, policy makers and other actors to support the transition towards a sustainable food system. This EU-research project is coordinated by Stichting Wageningen Research (Netherlands).
