<p>Following extensive consultation with the Food and Drink Industry, Campden BRI, one of our Food Authenticity Centres of Expertise, publishes a report of industry needs that can be met through innovation in science and technology. The consultation spanned ‘pre-farm to post-fork’, so many needs were identified.</p>
<p class="text-bold">Commonly expressed needs:</p>
<ul class="pad-20-left">
<li>Sustaining product quality in the face of rising costs of operations and materials</li>
<li>Soil health - recognition of soil as a resource and methods for its protection</li>
<li>Human microbiota - understanding and harnessing the role of gut microbes in diet-related health conditions</li>
<li>Anti-microbial resistance - addressing its significance for the food and drink sector</li>
<li>Artificial intelligence (AI) and cyber-security - managing the benefits and risks of the ‘connected world’ (e.g. Internet of Things, ’Big Data’, and machine learning)</li>
</ul>
<p>Long-standing needs that are common to different parts of the supply chain, include:</p>
<ul class="pad-20-left">
<li>Assuring product safety through systems and analytical tools</li>
<li>Encouraging consumer well-being through healthy diets</li>
