INNOECOFOOD aims to establish innovative production/ business ECOHUBS and improve local aquaculture farms using AI and IoT in six African countries. To support EU-AU markets and trade, INNOECOFOOD will train rural farmers, youth and women to innovatively produce and process nutritious aquaculture catfish and tilapia, blue-green cyanobacteria spirulina, and insect value chains that will be processed into certified marketable human food products and feed. This farm to fork approach, reaching TRL7, will be achieved by using climate smart sustainable local resources, innovative chilling and drying processes using renewable energy, reduced water consumption and circular systems within the ECOHUB by an experienced multi-actor consortium comprising 20 partners in Europe and Africa and rural communities. The specific objectives are to: - Conduct scoping of aquaculture practices (living labs) and establish four sustainable and innovative agribusiness rural ECOHUBS using renewable solar/wind energy for the production, processing and marketing of aquaculture value chains (fish and Spirulina) and insects diverse African countries (WP2), to address AU and EU green deal and trade. - Optimize the production of eco-farmed fish, spirulina and insects, sustainable feeds and post-harvest processing technologies using sensors, AI and IoT technology in aquaculture ECOHUBS and living labs sites (WPs3-5). - Scope suitable plant products; up cycle fish waste nutrients and make novel products from fish and co-products, spirulina and insects by solar powered drying and extrusion processing, using AI sensors and IoT (WP6). - Validate nutritional and sensory quality, microbiological and chemical safety, consumer acceptance, life cycle analysis impact, and implement certification schemes for fish, spirulina and insect processing and products, for consumption, marketing and trade (WP7). - Create a database and train locally 120 youth and 120 women in the ECOHUBS and 5000 rural workers (WP8).

INNOECOFOOD的目标是在六个非洲国家建立创新的生产/商业ECOHUBS，并利用人工智能和物联网改善当地的水产养殖场。为了支持欧盟-非盟的市场和贸易，INNOECOFOOD将培训农村农民、青年和妇女创新地生产和加工营养丰富的水产养殖鳕鱼和罗非鱼、蓝绿色蓝藻螺旋藻和昆虫价值链，这些产品将被加工成经过认证的适销对路的人类食品和饲料。这种从农场到餐桌的方法达到TRL7，将通过使用气候智能可持续当地资源、使用可再生能源的创新冷冻和干燥工艺、减少用水量和生态中心内的循环系统来实现，该联盟由欧洲和非洲的20个合作伙伴和农村社区组成的经验丰富的多方财团组成。具体目标是：-确定水产养殖实践的范围(活的实验室)，建立四个可持续和创新的农业综合企业农村ECOHUBS，利用可再生的太阳能/风能生产、加工和销售水产养殖价值链(鱼和螺旋藻)和昆虫(WP2)，以应对非盟和欧盟的绿色交易和贸易。-利用传感器、人工智能和物联网技术，优化生态养殖鱼类、螺旋藻和昆虫的生产、可持续饲料和收获后加工技术，在水产养殖ECOHUBS和活的实验室地点(WPs3-5)。-适用的植物产品；利用人工智能传感器和物联网(WP6)，利用太阳能干燥和挤压加工，向上循环鱼类废物营养，并利用鱼类及其副产品、螺旋藻和昆虫制造新产品。-验证营养和感官质量、微生物和化学安全、消费者接受度、生命周期分析影响，并执行鱼类、螺旋藻和昆虫加工及产品的认证计划，以供消费、营销和贸易(WP7)。-建立一个数据库，在当地培训120名青年和120名妇女，以及5000名农村工人(WP8)。
