“…A growing literature indicates that the linear economic model is still the common practice in most countries (Secco et al 2020;Junjie et al 2011). Transition from the linear to the circular economy requires the overhaul change in all aspects of the economy including the product itself, production process and organizational process (Frodermann, 2018).…”

‘Circular economy’ in agriculture centres on the production of agricultural commodities using a minimal amount of external inputs, closing nutrient loops and reducing negative discharges to the environment (in the form of wastes and emissions). This can be achieved through the (re)design of maintenance, repair, reuse, remanufacturing, refurbishing, and recycling. Under the principles of CE, products and materials approaching their end-of-life stage can be regenerated or restored or replaced. Circular agriculture is aimed at closing the loop of materials and substances, and reducing both resource use and discharges into the environment. New measures like environmental taxes, insurance for liability resulting from environmental damage, cap and trade system and environmental labelling can be explored to promote transition of a current linear model to a circular one. The circular economy in Nepal is in infant stage and there is plenty of works to be done in this sector. The results of the paper will be instrumental for the transition of Nepalese agricultural sector to a more circular one.

“…The Circular Economy emerges as a strategy capable of aligning social equity, economic welfare and environmental balance (Secco et al, 2020), where collaborative consumption has attracted attention due to the emergence of new business models based on shared economy (Retamal, 2019). In this context, the Product Service System (PSS) corresponds to a model capable of leading society to a Circular Economy (Halstenberg et al, 2019;Hankammer et al, 2019;Pieroni et al, 2019).…”

Goal:The aim of this study is to conduct a systematic literature review to identify opportunities to minimize Covid-19 impacts on businesses.Design / Methodology / Approach: The methodology used corresponds to a literature systematic review, covering bibliometric and content analysis. For this purpose, the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses (PRISMA) was employed in the literature search. In total, 98 papers were selected to compose the bibliometric analysis, of which 14 are within the scope of the investigation (content analysis).Results: Bibliometric results present a grouping of keywords, authors' co-citation network, geographic distribution of publications and main journals. In the content analysis, trends for postpandemic economy are pointed out, unveiling guidelines and opportunities to ensure the resilience of business proposals. Limitations of the investigation:The conclusions present limitations inherent to literature review papers, where filters are used to limit the search. In this work, the research was restricted to articles, published between 2015 and 2020 and written in English.Practical implications: This article proposes perspectives to react in a resilient way in the post-Pandemic period of Covid-19, in order to guarantee the permanence and competitiveness of the companies in the market.Originality / Value: Product-Service Systems and Circular Economy were found to be related to the trends and opportunities identified for the short-future economy.

“…Biodigesters have a special vocation to assist projects centered on concepts such as the circular economy (Secco et al 2020 ) and the water, energy, and food nexus (Sanchez-Zarco et al 2020 ), since it is capable of converting waste and other polluting elements, such as gray water, into energy and revenue sources, minimizing the environmental impact and expanding the generation of jobs (Hyman and Bailis 2018 ), its full compliance with the dimensions of sustainability is well noted (Javaheri et al 2020 ). To corroborate with the central idea of the research, which is the use of biodigesters as an eco-innovation for the treatment of polluting materials with a high organic load, and with this generating biogas, in addition to producing biofertilizers, eco-innovative initiatives carried out around the world and in Brazil.…”
