Optimizing raw milk collection routes: integrating emissions reduction and disruptions for a sustainable and resilient dairy supply network

Transportation and logistics play a significant role in agri-food supply chains. In particular, road transportation is vital for the operation of the early stages of the chains because the location of farms, the available infrastructure, and the low-added value of products make infeasible the use of other means of transportation. This is the case for the collection and gathering of raw milk, a fundamental raw material in the dairy industry and a crucial operation for food security and child nutrition. This industry faces significant challenges in Colombia as it operates in highly dynamic environments, deals with high levels of informality, relies on deficient infrastructure, is affected by public order issues, and is part of a highly polluting sector.
