Under the condition that funding will be obtained,onbsp; the Swedish University of Agricultural Sciences (SLU), Dept. of Work Sciences, Business Economics and Environmental Psychology (AEM) is looking for a doctoral student to work in the research project oquot;What do you mean add value?

Background: Swedish food production is characterized by costs that are among the highest in the world. This in combination with the opening of Swedish markets to EU competition and low entrence barriers for non-EU members has created conditions where Sweden is seen as a profitable dumping ground for low priced foreign food products. The inability for many Swedish producers to compete with actors on price who have an inherent cost of production advantage has created the need for many to rethink their value propostion. In light of this, producers are encouraged to explore ways to oquot;add valueoquot; to offerings making them easier to differentiate and compete in markets where price is not of primary concern. While the suggetion is straightforward, it leaves many important questions unanswered. Should all food producers regardless of size, sector, competence, and experience focus on adding value? If not, who should try and what tools do we have to determine this a priori? Moreover, where and what kinds of value should the attempt to create?
