In Action


The project is structured into 6 work packages, each focusing on a specific aspect of the project and managed by a specific partner.

Deliverables

The following deliverables are the main outputs of the project. Links are added as deliverables are completed and published.


D6.1 — DMP initial version

An initial Data Management Plan establishing how project data will be managed and shared in line with Horizon Europe requirements and open science practices.Link

D6.3 — Project ethics

Procedures and training materials guiding the consortium on research ethics, gender considerations, privacy, responsible innovation and ethical issues associated with project models and AI.Link

D6.4 — Project handbook

A project handbook supplementing the Consortium Agreement with practical management procedures, roles, responsibilities, progress monitoring and risk management arrangements.Link

D6.2 — PEDR

A plan defining communication, dissemination and exploitation strategies for project results, including target audiences, engagement activities and routes to uptake.Link

D4.1 — Case study planning

D5.1 — Stakeholder insights report

A report synthesising stakeholder research on food footprint data needs, priorities, access barriers and opportunities to guide the development of useful and accessible solutions.

D3.2 — Producer survey data

Survey findings documenting farmers' willingness to adopt sustainable practices and the incentives and support needed to encourage their uptake.

D2.1 — Data assessment report

A report detailing a structured assessment of food-related datasets and tools and their adherence to FAIR principles, alignment with Product Environmental Footprint standards, and examples of best practice.

D5.3 — Policy brief 1

An initial policy brief translating emerging project findings and stakeholder insights into recommendations for feasible sustainable food transitions in selected EU countries.

D2.2 — Recommendations sheets

Standardised recommendation sheets providing individual data and tool providers with practical guidance to improve data quality, accessibility, FAIRness and readiness for Product Environmental Footprint applications.

D4.2 — Food system innovations (Task 4.2 results)

A report assessing environmental improvement opportunities and implementation challenges across case studies on spices, seaweed, insect-based foods and cellular agriculture.

D4.4 — Cold Chains case study

A case study evaluating the carbon footprint of fish exports from East Africa to the EU and identifying cold chain designs and business models that reduce emissions and support local development.

D5.5 — Practice Abstracts Batch 1

A first batch of EIP-AGRI practice abstracts presenting practical project knowledge, approaches and tools in an accessible format for practitioners.

D5.7 — Gaps and Solutions Platform

An online platform matching innovative solutions with food-sector sustainability disclosure challenges and information gaps to support standard setters, companies and financial institutions.

D6.5 — DMP Mid-project Update

A mid-project update to the Data Management Plan reflecting developments in project datasets, data handling and open science arrangements.

D3.1 — Consumer survey report

A report analysing consumer support, opposition, likely uptake and willingness to make trade-offs concerning innovative food solutions across EU countries.

D2.3 — FAIR data recommendations

A report and/or research paper synthesising recommendations and findings from provider engagement and workshops to guide future improvements in the FAIRness and usability of food-related data and tools.

D2.4 — Summary of implemented recommendations

A summary of improvements implemented in consortium datasets and tools in response to recommendations on FAIRness and technological readiness.

D1.2 — LCIs of crops and animal products

A life cycle inventory database quantifying energy and resource inputs and emissions associated with crop and animal production with a focus on water consumption and eutrophication.

D1.3 — Regionalized LCIA data

Regionalised life cycle impact assessment methods and data addressing key gaps in assessing food production impacts on biodiversity, water, soil, air and ecosystems.

D2.5 — LCA results calculated and published using open infrastructure

An open web resource enabling the calculation and publication of harmonised food life cycle assessment results using linked agricultural and farm input models with improved statistical robustness.

D1.4 — Trade and transport model

A spatially explicit model linking domestic and international food trade flows with transport modes and associated greenhouse gas and particulate matter emissions.

D5.2 — Stakeholder evaluation

An evaluation of stakeholder feedback on proposed data tools and food system solutions, assessing industry readiness, accessibility, uptake potential and scalability.

D1.5 — PEF-compliant LCI data of food

An integrated food life cycle inventory database combining production, processing, and food loss and waste data, aiming for a Product Environmental Footprint compliant format.

D2.6 — Database

A centralised database combining quantitative food footprint data and textual research findings to support the project's AI conversational tool. This deliverable may change slightly due to the rapid developments in AI.

D2.7 — Green Grocer FoodprintGPT

A validated web-based AI conversational tool that answers natural-language questions about food life cycles, supply chains and environmental impacts using project data and research findings. This deliverable may change slightly due to the rapid developments in AI.
