Content:
This book is the second volume of a selection of the best papers presented at the XXX National Conference of Commodity Science held in Bari, Italy on 27–28th October, 2022. It is designed to help advance the knowledge and application of Commodity Science in innovation, quality, and sustainability principles and goals. Furthermore, it provides support in confronting the current environmental and socioeconomic challenges and contributes to addressing and solving those concerns in a circular economy context. Under this perspective, the book highlights the central role that Commodity Science can play, also considering the multiple possibilities of interacting with other relevant research sectors, like food production and packaging, engineering, environmental science, organization, management, decision science, and social science, so enabling valorization and maximization. These interactions will appeal to academics, producers, decision- and policymakers, and other stakeholders. Thus, this book has a multidisciplinary holistically integrated approach to Commodity Science that contributes to enhancing the current literature and knowledge.
