In October 2014, the Committee on Food Security approved the Principles for Responsible Investment in Agriculture and Food Systems (CFS-RAI Principles), with the objective of contributing to the achievement of food security and nutrition, through the improvement of sustainable livelihoods.
As the concept of agriculture and food systems includes all activities from production to disposal of the products resulting from these activities, the stated engineering project would be included in this category, being the purpose of this the design, calculation and dimensioning of a refrigerated omelette industry located in the town of Golmayo, in the province of Soria.
The decision to locate the industry in the province of Soria is based on the possibility of empowering this rural area by generating economic and sustainable growth, which will result in obtaining the necessary conditions for the revitalization of rural areas. Therefore, this communication investigates how the project is enriched by aligning decision making for the achievement of this objective, both in direction and management, with the CFS RAI principles.
