Towards a Sustainable Bioeconomy: Principles, Challenges and Perspectives
This book gathers contributions from scientists and industry representatives on achieving a sustainable bioeconomy. It also covers the social sciences, economics, business, education and the environmental sciences. There is an urgent need to optimise and maximise the use of biological resources, so that primary production and processing systems can generate more food, fibre and other bio-based products with less environmental impacts and lower greenhouse gas emissions.

The theme of 2016 is ”Solidarity in a competing world - fair use of resources”. While on the one hand, one part of the world is profiting from natural resources, the other part of the world is suffering with hunger, malnutrition, human diseases, low income, violence and lately is also challenged through climate change. There is need to rethink and engage in a fair share of all resources between the continents and nations.

In the wake of fierce competition caused by the globalizationof markets, domestic manufacturing base is threatened in many countries asthe imported products offer wide choice and lesser prices to the consumers. Itappears that many states, especially the European Union in response to the localpressures adopts disguised protectionism by imposing barriers in the form ofSPS and TBT standards on imports. This situation has led to several internationaltrade disputes.
