ReviewIn recent years, modelling techniques have become more frequently adopted in the field
of food processing, especially for cereal-based products, which are among the most consumed
foods in the world. Predictive models and simulations make it possible to explore new approaches
and optimize proceedings, potentially helping companies reduce costs and limit carbon emissions.
Nevertheless, as the different phases of the food processing chain are highly specialized, advances in
modelling are often unknown outside of a single domain, and models rarely take into account more
than one step. This paper introduces the first high-level overview of modelling techniques employed
in different parts of the cereal supply chain, from farming to storage, from drying to milling, from
processing to consumption. This review, issued from a networking project including researchers from
over 30 different countries, aims at presenting the current state of the art in each domain, showing
common trends and synergies, to finally suggest promising future venues for researchinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersio
