Digital innovation for sustainable food systems
1. Digital Innovation for Sustainable Food Systems
Sjaak Wolfert & Krijn Poppe, Wageningen Economic Research
‘Implications of Digitalisation in Agriculture’, 4 Sep. 2019, ETH, Zürich
2. The dietary behaviours of 9 billion people in 2050 determine not only their
physical health, mental and social well-being, but also the sustainability of the
food system that has to produce these diets within planetary boundaries.
The grand challenge in food:
The future of our planet
is on your plate

Customer & Provider
Uses soil maps and agronomic knowledge to create
crop management task map based on variability in
soil characteristics like organic matter and/or clay
content, water storage capacity, tramlines, shade,
etc..
Smart application of resources: seeds,
pesticides, fertilizers +4%
+5%
-23%
Better distribution of plants leads to +5% kilos and +5% better
quality (more potatoes in desired size). Taking soil characteristics
for weed growth into account: -23% less herbicide and +2% more
yield.
Enriching canopy index with soil characteristics lead to -10% less
additional N fertilizer (2nd phase).
These values derive from comparison of a standard farm’s performance
prior to the installation of our system and after.

Existing variable rate maps are often based on tweaking

• Three dominant themes from literature analysis
• Data ownership, accessibility, sharing and control
• Power (re-)distribution
• Expected substantive (hard and soft) impacts on the environment,
on human and animal life and wellbeing
• Workshop format developed to stimulate the dialogue
on these themes
• Collecting more empirical evidence

31. Summary and conclusions
There’s a clear potential in digitalization
of Food Systems
Major shifts in roles and power relations
among different players
Infrastructure, Business Models,
Governance & Ethics are important
interrelated issues
● Collaborative, multidisciplinary, agile
approach
● In-depth research
Acceleration/expansion by creating
common infrastructures and innovation
hubs
Two extreme scenarios:
1. Strong integrated supply chain
2. Open collaboration network
Reality somewhere in between!

Notas do Editor
Food Production is becoming smarter
As a follow-up of previous slide, but just highlight a few topics of this slide
Explain the systems of systems movement
Which results in this battlefield of old and new players
Adding also the public dimension.
Bottom-line is that digital data of the objects in the food production chain can potentially be used for multiple purposes, but...
The issues to be solved are very interrelated: choices on infrastructure are influencing governance, and vice versa, and so on...
We have already worked on this in several main project lines, that are now also coming together, including a new area on rural economies
This has become our general project approach in many projects...
So let’s illustrate this by examples and discuss the general lines.
This slide provides an overview of the project aim and objectives.
Voice-over:
Value net creation is an example of a data-driven business model in which non-competitive companies in the same supply chain network are exchanging data on a non-monetary basis. In this case we are talking about the same farmer with which all of them are doing business. The idea is that each individual player can improve its product or service with data of the others.
So in the ‘old situation’ data was only exchanged 1:1 between a farmer and one of the other chain actors.
Then they decide to gather all data into a Data Platform, usually in the cloud. Now in principle every player could access all data.
However, of course you cannot just share all data without any agreements on control and use of the data. Therefore a kind of ‘network administrative organization’ is needed that organizes this.
In the Netherlands an organization like this is established under the name ‘JoinData’. Three cooperatives CRV, Agrifrim and FrieslandCampina have taken the initiative in this and later on the Dutch Farmer’s association ‘LTO Nederland’ has joined this.
The project ‘DATA-FAIR’ is currently supporting JoinData in further developing the technical architecture and governance infrastructure. This has also led to further interest of other parties that want to enter JoinData
IoF2020 believes that it is important for a large scale take‐up to maximize synergies across multiple use case systems.
As a consequence, much attention is paid to ensuring the interoperability of multiple use case systems and the reuse of IoT components across them. The figure shows the architectural approach to achieve this during design, development, implementation and deployment.
To enable reuse of components, IoF2020 will provide a catalogue of reusable system components, which can be integrated in the IoT systems of multiple use cases of the project. It will include as much as possible existing components from previous and running projects and (open source) initiatives, including FIWARE, FIspace, etc.
In this example WUR as a whole acts as a DIH delivering several services that orchestrate various players outside the DIH.
Ultimately, this should result in newly, funded Innovation Experiments, where several of these players are collaborating on digital innovations.
WDCC delivers various competences within the WUR-DIH to (i) facilitate the orchestration process, (ii) setup an innovation experiment and (iii) execute innovation experiments
An example:
A bright start-up has a splendid data-driven product that is expected to help farmers to improve crop disease management. However, it is still a prototype that needs to be upgraded to a real, marketable product in an innovation experiment. They knock on the door of the WUR-DIH for help.
WUR-DIH uses its network of farmers and cooperatives to get end-users interested to experiment and validate the product. There’s a also a need for an appropriate data infrastructure that is robust and compliant with the state-of-the-art security standards. WDCC brings in their knowledge and network of (large) ICT companies to advise on the right infrastructure and helps to choose (i).
WUR-DIH also does matchmaking in their network of public and private funders to find the financial resources to carry out the innovation experiment.
They help the start-up and the established multi-actor network to write a high-quality project plan. This plan requires a good data management plan. WDCC is delivering a services to write a good data management plan (ii).
Finally the innovation experiment is conducted and WDCC helps to analyse the data by connecting the right data scientists from WUR to the innovation experiment (iii)
Potentially, WDCC can also have this function for other DIHs in the whole SmartAgriHubs network of DIHs, as other competence centers can also be involved in the WUR-DIH.
