Abstract: By guaranteeing a remunerative price and marketing to farmers in the Niayes area, ASD markets help to dissipate the uncertainty and risks associated with marketing conditions. Our work has allowed us to place the alternative aspect of the ASD market phenomenon, as an original short food marketing circuit based on ethical principles, in a more general context - that of the increasing industrialization and standardization of food production, distribution and consumption. It appears that, under the fire of trade globalization, this question of social demand - which was nevertheless characteristic of Western societies in the northern hemisphere - is gradually gaining ground in a number of emerging societies in the South. New food behaviors are emerging. Henceforth, the urban demand requires healthy and more tasty products.
