Abstract:

The past several years have seen a rising interest in all things sustainable, from energy efficient homes and vehicles, to alternative energy sources, to increasing focus on recyclable and renewable material usage. This trend has also been accompanied by an increased examination by consumers of where our goods come from and how they reach us. Decades of globalization have drastically altered supply chains. Along with consumer goods, the distance in which food travels to reach its markets has grown exponentially. This research will identify how the local food supply and distribution system functions in Upper Midwest States and means by which local food transportation movements can become more efficient.
