The industrial food chain refers to the large-scale production, processing, and distribution of food that is heavily reliant on technology, mechanization, and globalization. It typically involves a series of stages, including farming, processing, packaging, and transportation, often prioritizing efficiency and cost-effectiveness over sustainability and local sourcing. This system is characterized by monoculture farming, the use of synthetic fertilizers and pesticides, and centralized distribution networks. While it can produce food at lower prices, it raises concerns about environmental impact, food quality, and the well-being of workers and communities involved.
