List of minimum requirements to comply with CAP Strategic Plans

The aim of this report is to find minimum criteria, characteristics of Short Food Supply Chain (SFSC) advisors and to recommend a checklist for those who give advice for SFSC actors. The overall objective of recommending such a selection criteria framework for SFSC advisors is to support the integration into the EU SFSC Knowledge Transfer Network and of prerequisites for advisory services to be integrated into national AKIS and comply with national CAP Strategic Plans. Each country has a different background and SFSC ecosystem thus the established checklist of core requirements for the SFSC advisors is only a recommendation, a guideline which can be used by the Member States (MSs) for the integration into their National AKIS.
