GreenCHAINge
Plant breeders, growers and wholesalers, import and export, are working together in the GreenCHAINge project to further increase the sustainability of transport flows. An important aspect is the switch from air freight to sea freight and from road transport to rail transport. Energy savings at international floriculture transport is an essential objective in this project. The CO2 reduction in the various commercial routes will be described in the work packages. The Dutch Association of Wholesalers in Floricultural Products (VGB) coordinates and arranges practical tests in cooperation with horticultural network LTO Groeiservice and Wageningen UR Food & Biobased Research. LTO Groeiservice is tasked with the plant health component, which means maintaining quality from production in the Netherlands and through the export flows. Wageningen UR Food & Biobased Research is to give substance to the research component. This project is being funded by the Netherlands Ministry of Economic Affairs; Topsector Tuinbouw and the Netherlands Product Board for Horticulture.
