Abstract:
This paper describes how innovation in metrology is interlinked with innovation in products and processes and strong implications of this fact for green growth.
The Taxonomy of the ways of innovation in metrology and a model based on the study An Assessment of the United States Measurement System have been used.
The project consists on the validation of an innovative technology for green and effective growth of crops developed by one of the authors of CBM™. This is done through three blocks of tests and measurements in equal sets of metrological disciplines.
The study presented is a demonstration of the value that metrology can provide for radical innovation in the field of green production of food.
