As cadeias agroalimentares envolvem distintos agentes socioeconômicos dispostos a montante e a jusante de suas operações centrais. Assim, possuem muitos interesses e são mediados por vários stakeholders, tais como clientes e governo. Ademais, a natureza das cadeias, quanto aos aspectos sociais da base de fornecedores primários e às questões de natureza ambiental, tornam cada vez mais complexos os desafios da gestão sustentável. Considerando o interesse da temática, o objetivo desse artigo é demonstrar o posicionamento do Brasil com relação às suas publicações no campo de estudo. Para tanto, foi desenvolvido um estudo bibliométrico consultando o banco de dados da Scopus, com recorte temporal de 2015 a 2022. Os resultados mostram que o número de publicações com temas de cadeias de suprimentos agroalimentares ainda são pouco exploradas no Brasil, mesmo quando considerados os artigos do tipo revisão. Conclui-se que a área constitui campo fértil para futuras pesquisas e publicações.

“…In this respect, innovative labels—such as traffic-light labels or the use of nanotechnologies—could be valid alternatives. Furthermore, technologies such as Agri-Food 4.0, Blockchain, and the Internet of Things can be useful tools to inform consumers in real time, while also supporting the supply chain decision-making process and improving the coordination process involving farmers, industries, and consumers [ 33 ].…”

The European Union (EU) adopts the One Health (OH) approach, based on the relationships between human, animal, and environmental health. OH concerns a multitude of aspects, some of which are discussed here. OH overlaps the European Green Deal plan and its relaunched Farm to Fork Strategy, which aims at spreading organic farms adopting the circular economy, in order to improve human health through both better environmental conditions and healthier food. Nevertheless, zoonoses cause sanitary cost in terms of infected farm personnel, lower productivity, and lower fertility of infected farm animals. In such scenarios, the decreased breeding yield and the lower income induce higher cost of farm products, meaning that the market price rises, becoming uncompetitive when compared to the prices of industrial products. Consequently, lower revenues can hinder the farm growth expected in the framework of the EU Green Deal. Since zoonosis control is a key element in aligning EU policies aimed at achieving the EU Green Deal goal of “ZERO environmental impact” by 2050, the authors suggest the inclusion of the parameter economic health in the OH approach, in order to individuate EU Member States (MSs) economically unable to conduct eradication programmes and to finance them. Economic health is here considered as a starting point of the new ethical and science-based One Health Financial Model that the authors suggest as an in-embryo model, in which specific rules should regulate public funds, private investments, and trading, which should exclusively concern public services and private enterprises complying with most of the OH parameters. In this way, economic losses due to collateral negative effects deriving from human activities can be progressively decreased, and the entire planet will benefit from the process. Despite the considerable efforts being carried out in the context of the OH approach, war causes tragic and devastating effects on the physical and mental health of human beings, on their lives, on pandemic and zoonotic threats, on animals, on plants and, last but not least, on the environment. War is incompatible with OH. Enormous efforts for peace are therefore urgently needed.

“…Various emerging risks can be identified in the context of the agri-food supply chain. These may be related to the unintended effects of technological innovation, for example in relation to data security and privacy in digital technologies [ 28 ]; the impacts of agricultural herbicides, pesticides, and chemicals, which affect soil and surface water negatively and represent potential threats to human and environmental health through accidental ingestion in foods and associated toxic affects [ 29 ]; emerging pathogens and toxins in the supply chain which may result in food-borne disease in humans and animals [ 30 , 31 ]; geopolitical changes which may place pressure on resources required for risk assessment and management [ 32 ]; and climate changes which may affect crops and crop production throughout Europe as weather systems are affected and act as stressors to plants [ 33 – 35 ].…”

Risk perception associated with an emerging agri-food risk in Europe: plant viruses in agriculture

et al. 2022

View full text Add to dashboard Cite

Background Research into public risk perceptions associated with emerging risks in agriculture and supply chains has focused on technological risks, zoonotic diseases, and food integrity, but infrequently on naturally occurring diseases in plants. Plant virus infections account for global economic losses estimated at $30 billion annually and are responsible for nearly 50% of plant diseases worldwide, threatening global food security. This research aimed to understand public perceptions of emerging risks and benefits associated with plant viruses in agriculture in Belgium, Slovenia, Spain, and the UK. Methods Online qualitative semi-structured interviews with 80 European consumers were conducted, including 20 participants in each of Belgium, Slovenia, the UK, and Spain. Microsoft Streams was used to transcribe the interview data, and NVivo was utilized to code the transcripts and analyze the data. Results The results indicate that, while study participants were relatively unfamiliar with the plant viruses and their potential impacts, plant viruses evoked perceived risks in a similar way to other emerging risks in the agri-food sector. These included risks to environment and human health, and the economic functioning of the relevant supply chain. Some participants perceived both risks and benefits to be associated with plant viruses. Benefits were perceived to be associated with improved plant resistance to viruses. Conclusions The results provide the basis for risk regulation, policy, and communication developments. Risk communication needs to take account of both risk and benefit perceptions, as well as the observation that plant viruses are perceived as an emerging, rather than an established, understood, and controlled risk. Some participants indicated the need for risk–benefit communication strategies to be developed, including information about the impacts of the risks, and associated mitigation strategies. Participants perceived that responsibility for control of plant viruses should be conferred on actors within the supply chain, in particular primary producers, although policy support (for example, financial incentivization) should be provided to improve their motivation to instigate risk mitigation activities.
