2. Hypothesis:
• Op#mizing
on
the
alliance,
logis#cs,
storage
and
processing
to
significantly
progress
in
compe##veness
and
resilience
in
the
grain
trade.
Research question:
• How can The Netherlands and its allies ensure food security by
investing in grain storage & processing clusters?
• How can investments in transport and logistics management
provide optimization of transportation costs in grain trade?
