About

Hana Trollman is a prominent researcher at the intersection of food systems, digital transformation, and sustainable agriculture, whose work has helped define how Industry 4.0 technologies are reshaping the global food sector. She is perhaps best known for coining and developing the conceptual frameworks of "Food Logistics 4.0" and "Food Processing 4.0," which have collectively accumulated over 350 citations and established a foundational vocabulary for understanding how cyber-physical systems, artificial intelligence, and real-time connectivity are revolutionizing food production, safety, and supply chains. Her highly cited 2020 paper on Food Logistics 4.0 has become a reference touchstone for researchers exploring digitally integrated supply chains, while her 2022 work on Food Processing 4.0 examines cost reduction, energy efficiency, and food safety improvements driven by fourth industrial revolution technologies. Trollman has since extended her expertise into precision agriculture and water management, with recent highly cited work on digital technologies for climate adaptation and sustainable water use. Her 2023 contribution on "Dairy 4.0" further demonstrates her ability to translate broad technological frameworks into sector-specific insights. With a rapidly growing citation record exceeding 600 citations, Trollman is an influential voice shaping the future of digitally sustainable food systems.
