A Study of Organic Corn, Sunflower, Soft Wheat and Soybean Supply Chains Worldwide

Following our studies on organic field crops in 2021 and on organic wheat and soybeans in 2023, Agence Bio, Terres Univia and Intercéréales seek to consolidate knowledge of the global organic field crop sector. To this end, they seek to continue analyzing the organic wheat and soybean supply chains while expanding the scope to include organic corn and sunflowers across 44 countries.

This third market study provides an overview of these supply chains in various countries, ranging from production (acreage, volumes, prices) to processing (volumes of oilcake, oil, flour, soy-based foods, etc.), as well as trade flows and end-product markets. The study includes an analysis of Europe’s dependence on imports, the political and regulatory environment in third countries and the identification of the main economic players in the various countries.

FOODCoST

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).
