Journal of Agribusiness and Rural Development, 2017, vol. 45, issue 3

Abstract: This paper analyzes the issues of social responsibility of businesses in the agri-food sector, with the applicable requirements being considered in the context of the initial links of the pork supply chain. It describes the production conditions in farms and agricultural holdings with reference to organizational and environmental requirements. Also, it shows the role of cooperation between pork producers and processors which assumes the ability to put in practice the principles of social responsibility in agribusiness. Particular attention was paid to the role of humans as a key entity enabling the implementation of CSR requirements. These issues were presented in the context of the Polish experience in dealing with African swine fever (ASF).
