The Agri-Food industry currently faces a range of challenges, from food safety and security, demand, and supply gaps to the maintenance of product quality and issues in product traceability. Smart digital technologies have opened a complete paradigm shift, providing solutions to these challenges, and helping move towards safe, resilient, responsive, and eventually profit-driven supply chains.The use of these digital technologies by Agri-Food supply chains can bring significant changes in food supply chain management by reducing food wastage, real-time product monitoring, and reducing scalability issues. Agri-Food 4.0: Innovations, Challenges and Strategies addresses new research on digital technologies in the industry, including smart packaging, smart warehousing, effective inventory control, blockchain technology, artificial intelligence, and other Industry 4.0 concepts.Agri-Food 4.0 explores the challenges and complexities in implementing such technologies, helping policymakers in the agri-food sector with impact assessment and digital transformation towards creating a sustainable industry.

The primary objective of this publication is to provide an in-depth exploration and examination of the diverse green processing strategies that are currently available. To achieve this, the book has been organized into distinct segments that cover five sub-themes, namely, green technologies in food production, post-harvest management and value addition for sustainable value chains, eco-friendly techniques in food packaging, waste management, and valorization. The first section of the book is dedicated to providing an understanding of various green technologies, with a specific focus on non-thermal processing technologies. The second section delves into the discussion of waste valorization technologies, while the third section provides a comprehensive overview of post-harvest management and value addition. The final section addresses the concerns of various stakeholders in the food value chain and also covers a few topics related to eco-friendly techniques. The editors of this book hope that readers will gain a comprehensive understanding of all the relevant topics and technologies related to green perspectives in the food processing sector. This publication is a valuable resource for food engineers, food scientists, food technologists, academia, and anyone else who is interested in learning more about green processing strategies in the food industry.
