Summary
Concepts such as food traceability and authenticity should be priorities in the area of food quality. Even if they\\\\nare not innovative concepts, their importance increases even more since increased consumer's sensitivity to\\\\norigin and production practices of food. Mediterranean high-value products, including argan oil and the black\\\\nIberian pig, have in common provenance from Mediterranean semi-arid environments. REALMed project will\\\\nenhance their intrinsic value by defining a Mediterranean label, by ameliorating tests on authenticity and by\\\\nconnecting to the process of production and environmental features. In the context of REALMed project, we\\\\ninvestigated Argan oil and seeds a) through an innovative approach associated with a mechanistic framework\\\\nand b) integrating the information on ecophysiological responses of Argan plants to semi-arid conditions\\\\n(especially water uptake and carbon fixation). Based on GIS and statistical models, a relationship arises\\\\nbetween isotope ratios and fractionation processes associated to local climate, soil conditions and metabolic\\\\npeculiarities. This relationship is expressed from local to regional scales and visualised through isoscapes, a\\\\ntemplate to render complex isotopic ratio data analysis. Spatial-temporal models and authenticity maps\\\\ndifferentiate between reference areas, even inside the Mediterranean basin. Differentiation turns into a\\\\nreinforcement of the commercial value of local/national products.
