Simulation von belastbaren, biobasierten Wertschöpfungsketten am Beispiel von Miscanthus und Sorghum im Donauraum
Können die Wertschöpfungsketten in der Makroregion Donau nachhaltiger, kreislauffähiger, und widerstandsfähiger gegenüber Störungen wie beispielsweise Pandemien sein? Wie könnte eine Modellierung helfen, die wirtschaftliche Tragfähigkeit der Entwicklung von Miscanthus- und Sorghumbasierten Wertschöpfungsketten in dieser Region zu simulieren?
