The world’s exponential population growth and global food demand is on a continuous rise, further stressing the need for more advanced methods of food production and supply or an alternate food network completely. Environmental and health awareness is also on the rise giving way to popularity in locally sourced food.
Solving challenges becomes significantly easier the more resources are dedicated to it. That is the basic premise behind the multi-stakeholder approach, the resources also include a large array of background, experiences, and intimate knowledge of the local landscape. The multi-stakeholder approach also brings advantages to how research can be conducted. Advantages such as easier research method access to target mar-kets, networks and connections to conduct surveys, interviews and focus group stud-ies. The multi-stakeholder approach also brings its own limitations and challenges of working with a non-traditional organized enterprise that are still in the early stages of being fully understood and fully utilized.
