Abstract

Artificial intelligence (AI) applications include pattern recognition, events predictions, optimisation and generation of recommendations, to name a few. AI works over data, for example, produced by different sub-systems that comprise a food supply chain (FSC), such as in farms, food industries, distribution centres and retail stores, collected as food product transactions occurrences or by sensoring tools, equipment and solutions across the FSC. The adoption of AI in the FSC, along with technologies, such as Industry 4.0, the Internet of Things (IoT), the GS1 labelling schemes and other emergent technologies, such as blockchain, provides a basis for integrating the food value chain by sharing FSC transactions via a distributed trustworthy platform which potentially enables the realisation of the circular food supply chain (CFSC). This chapter describes the CFSC concept, features, value propositions, requirements, the technologies and systems for supporting it, and applications of AI in food quality and supply chain optimisation.
