The food production and processing sector are facing sustainability challenges of growing complexity. To tackle these challenges, data and knowledge from many different domains may be structured and stored using an ontol-ogy, a semantic model. In this paper we present a core ontology designed to model processes and observations from food domains. Three datasets struc-tured according with this ontology are stored into a repository. Dedicated tools were designed to assist domain experts in integrating and querying data. Semantic integration of data from food transformation domains may enable new decision support tools for new products with good qualities and eco-friendly properties.
