Global | Publication | October 2020
The whole of the global food and agribusiness value chain is under more pressure than ever before due to increased attention on the environmental and resource impacts of supply chains and demand for sustainable production. This is leading to changes in supply chains at an unprecedented speed. Agribusiness supply chains are complex and multi-faceted, including various components related to supply, production, post-harvest, processing, distribution and includes linkages in-between – truly “farm-to-fork”.
To feed the ever-growing global population, which is estimated to be nine billion people by 2050, in a sustainable and resource efficient manner will require new and better ways to supply the world’s food. Global food supply chains will need to adapt.
Our food law team explores the latest trends and developments in food supply chains. The articles in this section cover a wide range of food products and supply chain processes and steps, exploring technology shifts and emerging best practices.

What appears to be a simple question is not as straightforward as one would think. One might take the view that it is just a matter of common sense whether something is a ship or not, yet it is difficult to define exhaustively what exactly a ship is, or the extent to which something forms part of a “ship”.
