For this, it is essential to carefully select the packaging materials and technologies. The agriculture industry is compelled to adopt eco-friendly practices including packaging. The difficulty arises in the development of packaging materials & solutions that are environmental-friendly, recyclable, and biodegradable while still meeting the functional requirements and guaranteeing product protection. The challenges related to advanced agricultural packaging may reduce the acceptance rate, impeding market share.
