Background
Data in the food chain is generated by many small actors, from farms and machinery to processing, logistics and retail, and each link has different incentives to share it. Without agreed structures for what may be shared with whom, on what terms, the data stays where it is created.
Agrifood Data Workshop set out to make that sharing practical: common ways of describing data, clarity about the legal framework, and demonstrations of the innovation that becomes possible once data can move.
