Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Factors such as climate change and resource scarcity and crises, e.g., pandemics and population growth, jeopardize the sustainability of the food system. The development and implementation of disruptive food technologies that make the current unsustainable food system healthier, circular, and more resource-efficient is a popular area of research. To overcome the limitations of conventional technologies, studies have been carried out to develop and implement new approaches. Despite the promising results that have been achieved, the optimization, implementation, and selection of food processing technologies require research and development.
This Special Issue invites researchers to contribute original research or review articles related to novel food and agriculture production technologies. This topic includes food processing technologies, the development of functional foods and beverages, cultured meat, nanotechnology, and consumers’ insights and acceptance.
