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旨在利用人工智能和物联网在六个非洲国家建立创新生产/商业生态中心并改善当地水产养殖场。为了支持欧盟-非盟市场和贸易，INNOECOFOOD将培训农村农民、青年和妇女以创新方式生产和加工营养水产养殖鲶鱼和罗非鱼、蓝绿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可销售人类食品和喂养。这种达到 TRL7 水平的从农场到餐桌的方法将通过使用气候智能型可持续当地资源、使用可再生能源的创新冷冻和干燥工艺、减少水消耗以及由欧洲 20 个合作伙伴组成的经验丰富的多参与者联盟在 ECOHUB 内的循环系统来实现以及非洲和农村社区。具体目标是： - 对水产养殖实践（生活实验室）进行范围界定，并建立四个可持续和创新的农业综合企业农村生态中心，利用可再生太阳能/风能进行水产养殖价值链（鱼类和螺旋藻）和多种昆虫的生产、加工和营销非洲国家（WP2），解决非盟和欧盟的绿色协议和贸易问题。 - 在水产养殖生态中心和生活实验室场所使用传感器、人工智能和物联网技术优化生态养殖鱼类、螺旋藻和昆虫、可持续饲料和收获后加工技术的生产（WPs3-5）。 - 适用范围植物产品；上循环鱼利用人工智能传感器和物联网（WP6），通过太阳能干燥和挤压加工，利用鱼及其副产品、螺旋藻和昆虫来生产新产品。 - 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，并实施鱼类、螺旋藻和昆虫加工及产品的消费、营销和贸易认证计划（WP7）。 - 创建数据库并培训当地 ECOHUBS 的 120 名青年和 120 名妇女以及 5000 名农村工人（WP8）。
