SUM-FOOD: Regional food paths using the example of the City of Vienna for the product group Vegetables

The report presents the interactions between the city of Vienna and its surrounding area with regard to the regional supply of food using vegetables as an example. Calculations and research show that the population's demand for vegetables can be met in principle. There is still a need for individual types of vegetables and processed products, as well as for the required quantities of vegetables according to dietary recommendations. In dialogue with regional stakeholders, possibilities were discussed to promote the expansion of the regional vegetable supply between the urban environment and the city. Appropriate labelling of products and awareness-raising measures should address local agricultural land as a valuable resource.
