Enhancing grape traceability from grower to consumer through GS1 Standards: A case study of the Australian table grape industry

Abstract

The traceability of agricultural products, including grapes, is essential for ensuring food safety, quality control, and supply chain transparency. This article investigates the use of GS1 standards to enhance grape traceability from grower to consumer. Through a case study approach, we examine how Global Trade Item Numbers (GTINs), Global Location Numbers (GLNs), and Serial Shipping Container Codes (SSCCs) were integrated into grape production and distribution processes to harmonize domestic and export supply chains and prepare for global regulatory requirements.

Potenziare la tracciabilità dell’uva dal produttore al consumatore attraverso gli standard GS1

La tracciabilità dei prodotti agricoli, compresi gli acini d’uva, è essenziale per garantire la sicurezza alimentare, il controllo della qualità e la trasparenza della catena di approvvigionamento. Questo articolo indaga sull’implementazione degli standard GS1 per migliorare la tracciabilità dell’uva dal produttore al consumatore. Utilizzando un approccio basato su studi di caso, esaminiamo l’integrazione degli identificatori GS1, come i numeri globali di articolo commerciale (GTIN), i numeri globali di localizzazione (GLN) e i codici di contenitore di spedizione sequenziale (sscc), nei processi di produzione e distribuzione dell’uva. Gli standard GS1 sono stati integrati nei dati sui frutti e sulla catena di approvvigionamento per armonizzare le catene di approvvigionamento nazionali ed estere, e per preparare l’industria dell’uva da tavola alle future esigenze regolamentari globali sulla tracciabilità.

Explorando el potencial bioprotector de levaduras nativas no-Saccharomyces en la vinificación: resultados preliminares

The use of the term bioprotection in winemaking refers to the use of non-chemical methods to prevent the development of undesirable microorganisms (yeasts and/or bacteria). The reason for studying this method is mainly as a natural alternative to the addition of sulfites during the pre-fermentation stages. In winemaking, the addition of s02 has multiple functions, the main ones being antiseptic and antioxidant power.

Viticultural landscape: history of a challenging coexistence between grapevines and humans

Vitis vinifera is the most grown grapevine species, which originated about 6 million years ago in the trans-caucasian area as the ancestral (wild) type v. Vinifera spp. Sylvestris. On the other hand, the human being (homo sapiens) is much younger since he originated about 300.000 years ago in north africa.

What drives Indications of Geographical Origin protection and governance mechanisms in the U.S. and European contexts? A contribution of the social sciences

There are fundamentally two different ways in which indications of geographical origin (igos) can be protected. The us approach favors the pre-existing trademark system through collective marks (cms), while the eu approach favors a maximalist approach via a sui generis system which promotes appellations of origin (aos). A consensus however emerges regarding the fundamental protection of origin against misleading, confusing and dilutive uses. Previous literature discusses these competing igo logics from historical, legal and international trade perspectives. In this paper, we depart from the field of social sciences, in particular from recent advancements in the well-established literature on proximities, in order to provide a reflection on the different logics underpinning the aos and cms systems.

L’essor des produits “No-Low” : nouveaux défis pour l’étiquetage et la réglementation

In recent years, “no-low” products seem to become a new worldwide trend. It appears to be a possible answer to the well-known context of climate change, the decline in wine consumption, and the wellness/health trend (“free from” claims, vegan, and so on…) That consumers are looking for. The aim of this study is to provide an overview of the “no-low” products sold in the french market (but not only french products), focusing on the labelling, packaging, and sales presentation of these products.

Produce wines with no quantifiable phytosanitary residues – Impact of washing grapes?

Consumer expectations are increasingly shifting towards “residue-free wines.” However, from an analytical standpoint, “zero” does not exist. Laboratories often use the quantification limits of analysis methods to signify ‘zero.’ Improved techniques now allow for the quantification of levels that were previously undetectable. This is why we prefer to use the term “unquantifiable residue” rather than “absence of residues.”
