Pilot Action in Egypt – Short Food Supply & Export Oriented Supply chains
In Egypt, across diverse regions including Ismailia, Belbas, Fayoum, Elminya, and Elwahat, farmers cultivate oranges and chamomile for both local and export markets. These areas hold strong agricultural potential, yet their economic growth is constrained by limited market access. Farmers either work with biodynamic practices through the Egyptian Biodynamic Association (EBDA) or utilize natural production processes.

Pilot Action in France – Green Public Procurement
In the Occitanie Region near Montpellier, local fruit and vegetable producers are encouraged to supply the public sector as part of a regional commitment to sustainable sourcing. This pilot targets the GPP system for fruits and vegetables in the Montpellier Market of National Interest (Mercadis), involving actors such as wholesale operators, producers, processors, service providers, restaurants, and the public catering sector (schools, universities, hospitals). Green Public Procurement has become a priority, aiming to reduce environmental impact while supporting agriculture.

Pilot Action in Italy – Short Food Supply Chain & Export Oriented Supply Chain
In Italy’s Lazio region, especially within the province of Latina, fruit and vegetable farming is a mainstay for small-scale producers who contribute to both Short Food Supply Chains (SFSC) or Export-Oriented Supply Chains (EOSC). However, the fragmented nature of the region’s agricultural landscape creates challenges in achieving consistent quality and distribution. The pilot focuses on a variety of vegetables, including both fruit (eggplants, peppers, tomatoes, zucchinis) and root vegetables (carrots, cabbages, kohlrabi).

Pilot Action in Morocco – Short Food Supply
In Morocco’s Draa-Tafilalet region, apple farming plays an essential role in the local economy. However, this area remains geographically isolated, making it difficult for producers to connect with high-value markets and realize the full potential of their harvests. These producers have low levels of technological sophistication and institutional support, making it difficult for them to compete in larger markets.
