The objective of SP 3 is science-based development of innovative technologies to reduce PHL at all nodes of the dairy value chain.
A focus will be on mapping and improving existing and developing new milk handling and processing technologies. Furthermore, we will look at possibilities to reduce seasonal variation, improve storability and develop new dairy products for various market segments.

RELOAD is characterized by its comprehensive approach to reducing PHL, with activities channelled through seven subprojects (SP 1–7). These address agricultural and food value chains from different angles. Commodity-based research is combined with cross-cutting themes. For the meat and dairy value chains, the policy framework that governs these sectors will be described and analyzed for its implications for different actors, and policy decision-makers and regulatory authorities will be involved in stakeholder platforms to jointly identify needs and options for change, so that losses can more effectively be reduced.
