A chapter in Sustainable Food Value Chain Development, 2023, pp 1-12 from Springer

Abstract: Abstract The book offers a holistic approach for sustainable agricultural value chain development and addresses significant aspects such as challenges, opportunities, best practices, technology and innovation, business models, and policy formulation in the context of developing and emerging economies. The chapters focus on all the entities in the agricultural value chain. Researchers, policymakers, and practitioners from the United States, Australia, Sri Lanka, Nepal, India, Estonia, and Africa have contributed to this volume. The edited piece covers a range of topics from climate change, sustainable livelihoods, corporate social responsibility, social entrepreneurship, resource efficiency, food loss and waste, and food consumption patterns in the context of food value chains. This edited volume is useful for scientists, researchers, students, and practitioners, as it brings together the latest interdisciplinary knowledge in the area of sustainable value chain development. An important aspect of the book is the presentation of case studies describing recent and ongoing projects from different countries. Viewed as an integrated whole, the chapters in this volume point to a way forward in meeting SDG imperatives related to food and nutritional security that balances social, economic, and environmental sustainability.
