Summary:
The Watson project is aiming to develop a set of tools and systems that can detect and prevent fraudulent practises across the entire food supply chain. It will increase transparency through improved track-and-trace mechanisms containing accurate, time-relevant, and untampered information on the food product throughout its whole journey. The project will also raise consumer awareness about food safety and value, provide data and knowledge to food safety authorities, and accelerate the deployment of transparency solutions in EU food systems. Focus areas: alcoholic beverages, honey, olive oil, meats, high-processing grains and dairy-based foods, salmon.
