“…According to (Parashar et al [25], food-related products are likely to cause emissions during production and distribution. The same result was conveyed by Phatak [68] in his research which states that carbon emissions occur in various stages of food processing that involve machines in the production system [69]. In addition, according to Aktas and Temis [20] and Saga, Jauhari, Laksono, and Dwicahyani [70], the increase in the number of products causes a significantly greater amount of production, which can trigger large carbon emissions.…”

Background: Traceability systems and carbon emissions are two important factors involved in production and distribution activities. The involvement of these two factors in production and distribution activities along the supply chain will ensure the safety and quality of food through the manufacture, packaging and distribution of products with minimal costs and in an environmentally friendly way. Objective: This study aimed to develop a model of canned fish food production and distribution integration by considering traceability and carbon emissions to minimize total costs. Method: A mixed-integer linear programming (MILP) approach was used to develop mathematical models and the optimal solution of the model created was obtained using an open-source spreadsheet solver program. Results: The results show that the proposed models produce the minimum total production and distribution cost with high traceability and low carbon emissions. Conclusions: The sensitivity analysis from this study shows that there is a significant relationship between production, carbon emissions, and the total cost of production-distribution. Moreover, it was concluded that the production level, carbon emission level, and emission threshold can have a significant influence in the generation of the total carbon emissions.

“…The supply chain of agricultural products connects the supply of the agricultural means of production, as a whole, and different links involving different stakeholders, such as smallholders, acquirers, and consumers. Problems in any link of the supply chain affect the overall sustainability of the entire chain [28]. Many studies have been conducted on the supply chain and industrial chain of apples.…”

Apple production provides smallholders with low economic benefits, while high environmental emissions limit the sustainability of the apple supply chain. Furthermore, coordination to achieve greater economic benefits and environmental protection, thereby improving the sustainability of the apple supply chain, remains underdeveloped. Here, we have analyzed the current status of the economic benefits and environmental emissions of the apple production process and explored the level of collaboration within the apple supply chain, based on an analysis of farmer horticultural practices for high production, high economic benefit, and low environmental emissions, in combination with substance flow analysis. Our study showed that compared with traditional practice, high-yielding, high-efficiency practice allowed fruit yield, partial productivity of nitrogen fertilizer, and economic benefit to increase by 33%, 61% and 49%, respectively, while soil nitrogen residue levels decreased by 13%. The improvement and adoption of technology in the apple-planting process significantly improved the sustainability of the apple supply chain: the economic benefit increased by 63%, while the nitrogen footprint decreased by approximately 68%. Additionally, the application of integrated nutrient management technology in the apple planting process significantly improved the sustainability of apple production, thereby synergistically improving the economic and environmental impact of the apple supply chain.

“…The second stream focuses on carbon emissions. Many studies have investigated the influences of carbon tax policy on firms' decisions in different scenarios, such as in a cold supply chain (Hariga et al, 2017), the context of government intervention (Madani & Rasti‐Barzoki, 2017), the design of closed‐loop supply chain networks (Haddadsisakht & Ryan, 2018), a multi‐stage green supply chain (Halat & Hafezalkotob, 2019), two collecting‐remanufacturing scenarios (Taleizadeh et al, 2019), a cement supply chain (Cadavid‐Giraldo et al, 2020), under financial constraints (Cao et al, 2020), with production technology (Gaigné et al, 2020), reverse logistics network design (Reddy et al, 2020), fruit supply chain (Alkaabneh et al, 2021) and transportation logistics system (Hasan et al, 2021). In conclusion, several scholars explored the impact of carbon tax policy on firms' profits and social welfare in different scenarios.…”

This study develops a game theory model to study the effects of the order‐online‐and‐dine‐in‐store (OODS) strategy on a restaurant's optimal decisions, expected profits, and the environment. We analyse and compare the equilibrium solutions under the benchmark and the online‐to‐offline scenario using the OODS strategy. The results show that the restaurant benefits from the OODS strategy when the operating costs of online channel and physical store are relatively low or when the unit carbon tax price of food packaging is relatively high. If the restaurant charges a high price, the OODS strategy will benefit the environment.
