The production and distribution of food are among the hot topics debated in context sustainable development. Short supply chains (SFSCs) now widely believed to be more comparison mass delivery systems. To date, very little quantitative evidence exists on impacts various types chains. Using a cross-sectional approach, this study assesses sustainability channels short long based 208 producers across seven countries: France, Hungary, Italy, Norway, Poland, United Kingdom, Vietnam. Ten channel...
Recent literature has highlighted the importance of testing sustainability performances supply chains. Nevertheless, this field research is still in its early stages, particular with reference to short food chains (SFSCs). This analyzed producers’ and consumers’ perception economic, social environmental two SFSCs a specific quality cheese (Parmigiano Reggiano PDO) placed different contexts: first rural area Appennino Tosco-Emiliano National Park mountains second peri-urban Parma...
ABSTRACT In recent years, food manufacturers have been devoting a large portion of their R&D budgets to the development functional foods. Although foods exhibit significant level information asymmetry, consumers appear be increasingly appreciative, recognizing role in preventing or reducing health risks and/or improving other physiological functions. This paper quantifies willingness pay representative sample 600 Italian for hypothetical yogurt using web‐based stated choice experiment....
Abstract The empirical literature suggests that farmland prices and rents capitalise agricultural subsidies the 2003 reform of EU Common Agricultural Policy, which decoupled from production attached them to land, may have increased extent phenomenon. Employing a farm‐level dataset, Farm Accountancy Data Network ( FADN ) for Italy, we investigate this issue while accounting selectivity, endogeneity unobserved individual heterogeneity. To understand impact compare estimates capitalisation rate...
Sustainability is becoming a pivotal guide for driving the governance strategies of value chains. Sustainable policy should have as its objective perpetuation production models over time to maintain environmental, economic and social dimensions. Therefore, measuring sustainability system fundamental deepening understanding ongoing trends, considering pressure exerted by agricultural policies, market dynamics innovations introduced in system. The purpose this paper present holistic framework...
The nexus of agri-food and sustainability in economic development has recently attracted the interest policymakers, as global challenges like climate change food security are revisited reassessed. critical role production been emphasized through targeted agricultural quality policies. Many developed countries worldwide, including EU member states, have introduced policies that could support sustainability. This paper combines knowledge obtained by several groups a broad study reflections on...
Mycotoxins contamination in food is a serious source of health risks. This paper evaluates the Italian consumers’ perception mycotoxins’ risk through their willingness to pay (WTP) for hypothetical bottle milk obtained by cows fed with, inter alia, maize certified “good practices” (GPs) that reduce this risk. Therefore, web-based stated choice experiment (SCE) has been carried out involving representative sample 973 consumers and WTP measured using panel data version Random Parameters Logit...
Sustainability, as well a concept related to development model, is becoming real guide drive the governance choices of value chains. A sustainable policy has objective perpetuating production models over time while maintaining environmental, economic and social dimensions that characterize given process. It therefore important measure sustainability system in its components understand ongoing trends under pressure agricultural policies, market dynamics innovation pattern introduced along...
This paper analyses the extent to which agricultural subsidies are capitalised into land rental price. By using Italian data at farm level analysis proposed in this innovates with respect existing studies different ways. Thanks long time span available FADN database it is possible compare two periods, before and after 2005 CAP reform, test whether any change occurred as a result of introduction decoupled payments scheme. In contrast previous empirical literature, has either focused on...
Abstract We study the effect of a set food quality scheme (FQS) products within local economy using multiplier approach based on LM3 methodology. To evaluate effective contribution area, we compare each FQS product with its equivalent standard/conventional counterpart. Local allows us to track financial flows converging area at different levels supply chain so that can measure role in economic activation. Overall, exhibit higher positive than standard references. However, there is...
Summary Intellectual Property Rights ( IPR s) are an important issue in the negotiations between United States US ) and European Union EU for a Transatlantic Trade Investment Partnership TTIP currently underway. However, Geographical Indications GI one of most disputed topics because, decades, have each led two seemingly irreconcilable camps on how to address protection s at international level. Agreeing trade raises issues related four dimensions system, which likely become ever more...
Abstract Food quality schemes (FQS: organic and geographical indication products) are often supposed to be more sustainable by their political advocates. We explore the social sustainability advantage of FQS through lens supply chains’ bargaining power (BP) distribution. propose an indicator synthesizing different sources underlying BP (competition-based, transactional, institutional) counting two dimensions (fair distribution adaptation capacity), that we apply 18 chains corresponding...
We study the capitalisation of subsidies in European Union (EU) regions years 2006-2008, first after introduction Common Agricultural Policy (CAP) 2003 reform that decoupled from production and attached them to land. For this purpose, we use regional aggregated data estimate rate upon entire sample and, a second stage, splitting according implementation regime applied by different EU Member States (MSs), following three options introduced CAP regulations (historical, hybrid model). find...
Following the decoupling of agricultural support from productions, likelihood that payments get capitalised into farmland rent or sale prices has increased. In this study, issue capitalisation is examined for case regions in EU and three year (2006-2008) time span following introduction reform considered an attempt to disentangle effect decoupling. Evidence put forward study confirms results previous literature at micro-level, suggesting additional 1% granted farmers translates increase 0.22% rents.
