The course gives a very good overview on various aspects of the agri-food value chain. Yet, it is missing updated perspectives according to recent geopoltical challenges, human induced disasters or natural disaster impacts deriving from climate change. Profit maximisation and growth alone can't be the main drivers with a rising focus on food security. Economic solutions to balances use of resources (water, land, etc.) among countries, making supply chains more resilient, fostering innovations for limited natural resources use in agri-food production, supporting small holders, etc. should be more prominent in the course. However, I did enjoy the course very much. It gave me new insights and ideas. Thank you.

The course spans a wide range of introductory concepts regarding the agro-food supply chains and definitely paves the way for further investigations the student must carry out in other sources. Some of the lessons might appear too basic for this or that audience, for example, sometimes an economist or an engineer might feel reviewing some topics, but, in the end, the outcome is positive. From the few negative points, the most remarkable one was the really bad English accent by some of the speakers (subtitles preferable).

Overall, this was a good investment of time. There were many interesting topics, many were offered with a good level of detail. A few topics were too broad, and the lecturers were just reading the slides. In general, I feel I learned many things that will help me navigate through technical conversations about agro-food products, value chains, and markets; and make proposals as well. I recommend this course.
