Resumen:
An expanding world population and a planet limited in natural resources are two of the main reasons that have propelled the development of scientific and technological solutions that enable the efficient, sustainable, and massive production of food and its subsequent preservation. In this regard, natural and synthetic polymers have found a place in agri-industry. In this first chapter, we introduce the main polymeric systems and their potential applications in agri-industrial processes.
