Sustainable Food Supply Chains
Academic Press Inc (Verlag)
978-0-12-813411-5 (ISBN)
With synthesized coverage of the academic literature, this book integrates the quantitative models and tools that address each step of food supply chain operations to provide readers with easy access to support-decision quantitative and practicable methods.
Broken into three parts, the book begins with an introduction and problem statement. The second part presents quantitative models and tools as an integrated framework for the food supply chain system and operations design. The book concludes with the presentation of case studies and applications focused on specific food chains.
Sustainable Food Supply Chains: Planning, Design, and Control through Interdisciplinary Methodologies will be an indispensable resource for food scientists, practitioners and graduate students studying food systems and other related disciplines.
Riccardo Accorsi is assistant professor at the University of Bologna’s Department of Industrial Engineering where he teaches Industrial Logistics class. His research interests lie in operations management and in the development of decision-support models and tools for the design, planning and optimization of sustainable production and distribution systems with particular focus on food supply chains. Leading member of the Food & Wine Supply Chain Council (FWSCC), he has written numerous publications on the management of food supply chain operations. He has been involved in many funded research projects and consulting for industry. Riccardo Manzini is a full professor of Logistics and Facility Planning at the department of Industrial Engineering, Alma Mater Studiorum University of Bologna, where he also acts as the director of the Food Supply Chain Center and the Warehousing Center. His research activity deals with the design, management, control and optimization of production system and supply chain, including laboratory research on monitoring and simulating the environmental effects of logistics and packaging decisions and solutions on perishable products. He is the founder, organizing and chair of the International Workshop on Food Supply Chain, “The Food Journey, and has been the guest editor for the International Journal of Production Economics in a special issue on Sustainable Food Supply Chain.
