        abstract = {Die M{\"a}rkte f{\"u}r {\"o}kologisch erzeugte Nahrungsmittel unterscheiden sich zwar in den europ{\"a}ischen L{\"a}ndern. In allen aber ist eine Steigerung des {\"o}kologischen Handelsvolumens erw{\"u}nscht, wobei kleine wie gro{\ss}e Vermarkter mit spezifischen Problemen konfrontiert sind. W{\"a}hrend kleine Unternehmen oder Initiativen oft an der Verf{\"u}gbarkeit gro{\ss}er Mengen scheitern, m{\"u}ssen sich gro{\ss}e Unternehmen der Herausforderung stellen, den umfassenden Qualit{\"a}tsanforderungen gerecht zu werden und dem Kunden die Werte {\"o}kologisch produzierter Nahrungsmittel glaubhaft zu vermitteln. 
Das Projekt HEALTHYGROWTH beruht auf der Kooperation von elf Partnern. Das deutsche Team leistet einen Beitrag zu den Arbeitspaketen WP2 bis WP6 und ist verantwortlich f{\"u}r WP7. Die deutschen Fallstudien von mittelgro{\ss}en {\"o}kologischen Wertsch{\"o}pfungsketten werden in unterschiedlichen Unternehmen oder Initiativen jeweils mit spezifischen Untersuchungsschwerpunkten stattfinden. Die vergleichende Auswertung der Fallstudien wird thematisch nach Themenfeldern aufgef{\"a}chert. Diese mehrdimensionale Analyse soll beim Verst{\"a}ndnis der Mechanismen wachsender organischer Wertsch{\"o}pfungsketten helfen. Eine Aufgabe des HNEE-Teams besteht in der Koordination des Transfers von Ergebnissen in Wissenschaft und Praxis. Schl{\"u}sselpersonen der Branche werden von Beginn an konsequent eingebunden, um die Praxisrelevanz des Ansatzes und eine effektive Verbreitung der Ergebnisse durch Ver{\"o}ffentlichungen, Seminare usw. zu gew{\"a}hrleisten.
Hauptbestandteil der Projektarbeit ist neben den Ver{\"o}ffentlichungen die konsequente Einbindung von Vertretern {\"o}kologischer Wertsch{\"o}pfungsketten. Wissenstransfer und gemeinsame Lernprozesse auf nationaler Ebene und {\"u}ber L{\"a}ndergrenzen hinweg sind Schwerpunkte im Arbeitspaket WP7, das das deutsche Team leitet. Das deutsche Teilprojekt zielt, ebenso wie das Gesamtprojekt, insbesondere auf den Wissens- und Erfahrungsaustausch ab. Die Verwertung der Ergebnisse besteht vor allem in der Verbreitung von Informationen zu Besonderheiten der Wachstumsprozesse innerhalb der Wertsch{\"o}pfungskette. Hierzu tr{\"a}gt auch der BLE-Ergebnisflyer bei. HEALTHYGROWTH will Erkenntnisse aus verschiedenen L{\"a}ndern und Unternehmen b{\"u}ndeln und an die Akteure und ihre Netzwerke weitergeben. Zielgruppen sind nicht nur mittelgro{\ss}e Bio-Nahrungsmittelh{\"a}ndler, sondern auch Kleinerzeuger und Unternehmen, die sich f{\"u}r neue Formen von Partnerschaften und Kooperationen im {\"o}kologischen Nahrungsmittelsektor interessieren.

For the purpose of identifying factors hampering local and organic food purchases in tendering procedures, this paper aims to point out the differences in theory and practice in public procurement processes.

        abstract = {The organic food market in Germany has been growing significantly. While expanding, businesses and food initiatives face many challenges. The paper focuses on the challenge of maintaining the added values of organic farming and consumer trust. Both are key assets in organic food chains, and both are difficult to secure when volumes grow, distribution channels change and when producers, processors, sales businesses and con-sumers are less closely connected which tends to limit direct communication and trans-parency. In the central part of the paper, we present an analytical framework that can be used to better understand these connections. Focus is on changes in business logic, chain organisation and coordination. Three case studies of organic value chains in Germany are used to illustrate the application of the framework. The analyses show that business logics and strategies are implemented through a particular set of management and/or marketing instruments and that these impact on the organisation of the businesses, the linkages between chain partners and the marketing of products. }

        abstract = {Growing small and medium enterprises face specific challenges, especially when they aim to maintain high quality products and processes. While growing, they tend to converge either towards niche markets or mainstream commodity markets, and as a result sacrifice higher quality and value. With this paper, we aim to show more about the growth processes of small and medium size enterprises and their related food supply chains. The focus is on the management of individual businesses, the coordination and cooperation along chains and the required realignment during growth. Particular attention is paid to discontinuities and an identification of the factors that limit or enable the sustainable development of food enterprises and chains. The methodological foundation for this paper is a case study based approach. The business logic concept, which has been developed in the context of a European research project, provides the analytical framework for the analysis of the cases. Central to the business logic concept is the idea that business goals, strategies, management and management instruments ought to be coherent. The business logic approach facilitates the examination of coherence in business and in chain management. It helps to identify the adjustments and realignment needed in times of change. Results show that development paths vary significantly between businesses and chains. Business growth is associated with a variety of challenges that can result in stagnation or even downsizing. Such discontinuities are often linked with phases of internal consolidation when management capacities, structures and processes are adapted to new requirements. Adaptations in business strategies and operational management are often crucial for sustainable development. Adaptations are particularly important when food production, processing and sales aim to maintain higher product and process qualities. Reflexive management practices and continuous learning among the responsible leaders, and the related coaching, are key success factors.},

        abstract = {In the analysis, we will 
- identify the most significant changes over time in relevant market, regulatory, institutional and territorial conditions, 
- assess the social, economic and other resources available among different groups of primary producers, 
- relate conditions and resources to the (adaptation) strategies pursued (e.g. regarding the management of the chain and risks), and 
- explore the (potential) impacts of the resulting (or expected) changes on social, economic and environmental performances. 
The analysis aims at capturing the interrelationships between external and internal conditions, (adaptation) strategies and (sustainability) performance. A first important step in the analysis is to express conditions, strategies and performances in absolute and/or relative terms, and to relate them to different points in time. This will then allow us to relate the producer groups? strategies to change in conditions on the one hand and to performances on the other. The three illustrative cases are a grain farmers? association in Lower Saxony, Germany, a group of carp producers using traditional ponds in Franconia, Germany, and a beef farmers? association in Uppland, Sweden. In all three cases, attention will also be paid to relate adaptation strategies to decision-making and to identify limitations in available data and check possibilities to overcome them. With our discussion, we aim to highlight the particular challenges. We want to highlight the particular importance of business-level actions and their dynamics as an additional level in the analysis.},

        abstract = {This paper aims to explore farmers' conditions, strategies and performances in a context of multi-dimensional policy requirements, market imperfections and globalisation. The basic assumption sees conditions as drivers for farmers? strategies that then result in performances of the sector. The methodological approach is based on the Conditions-Strategies-Performances (CSP) model which is used for the analysis of three case studies. The model helps to identify changes in framework conditions over time, resources among relevant groups of primary producers, adaptation strategies and finally, to explore the related social, economic and environmental effects. The analysis is based on three case studies, three farmers? groups in Germany and Sweden. Results show that the approach provides a suitable conceptual framework. Its particular strength is the holistic nature of the assessment and that it focusses on changes, dynamics, strategic decisions and impacts that matter in societal terms. It helps to identify factors that affect the sustainability of specific farming industries.},

        abstract = {In various European countries, organic farming acts as a driving factor for small and medium enterprises, cooperations of food businesses or territorial development. Examples for regional development initiatives are ?Biovall{\'e}e de la Dr{\^o}me? in France, ?Biodistretti? in Italy or the ?Bio-Regionen? in Austria. Regional development initiatives aspire to create ?model regions? for sustainable development in agriculture and in a wider perspective. While the overall objective is similar for all approaches, the outcomes differ between enterprises and regions. However, the regional embeddednes plays always a strategic role. The region can be the key quality criteria of the values-based food chain, the main characteristic of the differentation strategy or just important for the image of the enterprise or organic initiative. For the realisation of the regional embeddedness of organic products excellent business strategies and efficient management tools are crucial for the development of businesses and chains maintaining the value added from field to fork. The territorial embeddedness is a strong quality argument for the marketing of organic products studied in the HealthyGrowth project.}
