“…Based on existing literature findings, the weather was considered a cross‐cutting category among all levels (Bhanumurthy et al., 2013; Feng et al., 2014; Kahiluoto, 2020). The weather may influence the changes in production (food availability), disrupt the food volume, and alter the trade patterns in domestic and international markets (Santeramo et al., 2021). In the current literature review, weather can affect the volume of trade and investment (Koizumi, 2019; Koizumi & Furuhashi, 2020), market imperfections (Larson, 2004), and price/productivity risks channels (Mainardi, 2012a).…”

The recent extreme volatility in agriculture prices determines serious repercussions to various stakeholders and levels in the food value chain, that is, producers, intermediaries, and customers, at micro‐, meso‐ and macro‐economic governance levels, respectively. Persistent high/low degree of agriculture prices leads to unsustainable production/consumption patterns, thus representing an impediment to reaching the goal of responsible consumption and production (UN‐SDGs 12). The lack of comprehensive real‐time information on price volatility's internal and external factors often resulted in an inconclusive and counterintuitive outcome while performing empirical estimation. The present review was conducted using the PRISMA framework to systematically identify and analyze literature from two important databases. Papers have been grouped by volatility drivers, governance levels, theoretical approaches, and background data types. The present review is a valuable starting point for understanding the links between multi‐dimensional factors affecting the persistent price volatility and the theoretical and empirical analytics trends to provide the computational advancement needed to cope with model estimation issues. It also highlights the importance of a paradigm shift in researching agriculture price volatility to addressing food crises, considering principal objectives and perspectives such as food security, poverty alleviation, sustainability in food value chains, and resilience of food systems across the globe.

“…The extension of the agricultural lands into noncrop lands to produce energy crops contributes to increase the level of the GHG releases, with potential detrimental impacts on climate change (Santeramo et al, 2021b;Santeramo and Searle, 2019). Differently, the conversion of existing cropland to produce energy crops may aggravate the pressure on land supply and exacerbate the competition between crops intended to energy production and those intended for food and feed consumption (Tomei and Helliwell, 2016).…”

The bioenergy sector is becoming of increasing interest: the European Union is not an exception. Indeed, it is in need of solutions to face one of the worst energy crises of the last century. The sector's growth faces numerous challenges. The main use of energy crops, as feedstock, generates stiff competition on the use of land for food and energy purposes. The production of bioenergy has relevant environmental implications in terms of greenhouse gas emissions. The social aspects related to the bioenergy sector are also potential obstacles to its development. These pressing issues for policymakers call for a better understanding on how national and international laws should regulate the growth of the bioenergy sector. Flying over the economic, environmental, social, and legislative aspects faced by the bioenergy sector, we conclude on threads, opportunities, and priorities that should be considered for its development and propose directions for future studies.

“…The literature on the relationship between climate change and production and trade dynamics is large 15 More details are provided in the Appendix A. and varied (e.g., [34]). Previous studies start from the assumption that, for open economies, the impacts of climate change on agriculture in any region is not isolated from the impacts occurring in the rest of the world (e.g., [18,35]).…”

The global wine trade is interested by significant changes since a few decades, due to new productive scenarios induced by climate change and to (rapidly) evolving trade and policy regimes. We investigate how these changes are altering trade dynamics. Following a gravity-type approach, we find that higher temperatures are beneficial for the terms of trade, and are boosting trade values. As for policy interventions, the impact of technical measures on trade values is heterogeneous across objectives: While technical measures tend to friction trade, the environment-related policies show pro-trade effects.
