Agri-food quality II addresses the quality management of plant-based food materials throughout the production chain, from field to table.

Furthermore, the concept of functional foods and sustainable production are also discussed.With contributors from international experts, Agri-food quality II will be of great interest to food scientists, agriculturalists, or indeed anyone involved with part of the food chain, both in academia and industry.
