Description

Explore the dynamics of short food supply chains (SFSCs) in this academic study from Routledge. This book examines how local production and processing practices offer a sustainable alternative to globalized food systems. By focusing on the separation between production and consumption, the text analyzes how SFSCs function in social, economic, and environmental contexts. Through an interdisciplinary lens, the research assesses recent initiatives and advances theoretical understanding of key concepts. Readers will gain insight into the importance of place, specifically how food systems are embedded in local economic networks and communities. The book also addresses governance as a method for managing these systems. This work is a valuable resource for those studying the challenges of modern agri-food systems and the potential for localized solutions.
