Its ability to analyze and support change both upstream and downstream in the agricultural and agri-food sectors focuses on three main areas:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>1. Area 1: Reconfiguration and transformation of agricultural trades and models<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>2. Area 2: Structuring and governance of agricultural and agri-food sectors<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>3. Area 3: Quality processes and value creation<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The work of the department\u2019s research professors is closely aligned with that developed within the UMR (joint research unit) to which they belong. Indeed, eight of the department\u2019s research professors are permanent members of joint research unit UMR CNRS 5193 LISST Rural Dynamics (CNRS \/ UT2J), and one research professor is a member of joint research unit UMR AGIR (INRAE \/ INP PURPAN).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><span class=\"TextRun SCXW175185871 BCX8\" lang=\"EN-US\" xml:lang=\"EN-US\" data-contrast=\"auto\"><span class=\"NormalTextRun SCXW175185871 BCX8\">This department works with the <\/span><\/span><a class=\"Hyperlink SCXW175185871 BCX8\" href=\"https:\/\/www.purpan.fr\/halle-de-technologies-agroalimentaires\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\"><span class=\"TextRun Underlined SCXW175185871 BCX8\" lang=\"EN-US\" xml:lang=\"EN-US\" data-contrast=\"none\"><span class=\"NormalTextRun SCXW175185871 BCX8\" data-ccp-charstyle=\"Hyperlink\"><strong>Agri-food Technologies Hall<\/strong>.<\/span><\/span><\/a><span class=\"EOP SCXW175185871 BCX8\" data-ccp-props=\"{&quot;134245417&quot;:false,&quot;335551550&quot;:6,&quot;335551620&quot;:6}\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\"><div class=\"anchor-summary\" style=\"background-image: url('https:\/\/www.purpan.fr\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/05\/students-in-the-park-2021-08-27-09-18-24-utc.png')\">\n    <div>\n        <strong>Summary<\/strong>\n        \n        <ul id=\"anchor-summary__list\">\n            \n        <\/ul>\n    <\/div>\n<\/div><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-getwid-section has-background-color-green has-height-undefined\"><div class=\"wp-block-getwid-section__wrapper\"><div class=\"wp-block-getwid-section__inner-wrapper\"><div class=\"wp-block-getwid-section__background-holder\"><div class=\"wp-block-getwid-section__background\"><\/div><div class=\"wp-block-getwid-section__foreground\"><\/div><\/div><div class=\"wp-block-getwid-section__content\"><div class=\"wp-block-getwid-section__inner-content\">\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Some of our projects<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-columns is-layout-flex wp-container-core-columns-is-layout-9d6595d7 wp-block-columns-is-layout-flex\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\">\n<p><strong>Understanding and comparing the trust and attitude of young \u201c<\/strong><strong>Millennials<\/strong><strong>\u201d <\/strong>towards the various labels existing in the food sector.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Labels and <\/strong><strong>Millennials<\/strong><strong> project<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Partners<\/strong><br\/>Fabriqu\u00e9 en Aveyron, Blue Whale, Les Paysans de Rougeline, Top\u2019Alliance<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\">\n<p><strong>Sociology of gender and dialog between farming and non-farming populations<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Feminization of the wine industry in Occitania: women winemakers\u2019 contribution to the revival of the profession.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"","protected":false},"author":7,"featured_media":0,"parent":9697,"menu_order":125,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","template":"","meta":{"inline_featured_image":false,"footnotes":""},"class_list":["post-12877","page","type-page","status-publish","hentry"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.purpan.fr\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/12877","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.purpan.fr\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.purpan.fr\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/page"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.purpan.fr\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/7"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.purpan.fr\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=12877"}],"version-history":[{"count":10,"href":"https:\/\/www.purpan.fr\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/12877\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":14188,"href":"https:\/\/www.purpan.fr\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/12877\/revisions\/14188"}],"up":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.purpan.fr\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/9697"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.purpan.fr\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=12877"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
