Understanding consumer resistance to the consumption of organic food. A study of ethical consumption, purchasing, and choice behaviour

“…Prior extended literature in the last decade has examined different issues in regard to organic food and consumers. This includes profiling of organic buyers (Chen, Lobo, & Rajendran, 2014;Hansen et al, 2018;Nandi, Bokelmann, Gowdru, & Dias, 2016;Petrescu, Petrescu-Mag, Burny, & Azadi, 2017), motivations for buying organic food (Hansen et al, 2018;Hasselbach & Roosen, 2015a;Hwang, 2016;Petrescu et al, 2017;Pham, Nguyen, Phan, & Nguyen, 2018a;Scalvedi & Saba, 2018;Sobhanifard, 2018), purchase intentions toward organic food (e.g., Asif, Xuhui, Nasiri, & Ayyub, 2018;Çabuk, Tanrikulu, & Gelibolu, 2014;Ham, Pap, & Stanic, 2018;Hsu & Chen, 2014;Lee & Yun, 2015;Mainardes, de Araujo, Lasso, & Andrade, 2017;Pham et al, 2018;Prakash, Singh, & Yadav, 2018), willingness to pay (Hasselbach & Roosen, 2015a;Lim, Yong, & Suryadi, 2014) and consumer attitude toward consumption (Çabuk et al, 2014;Chekima et al, 2017;Janssen, 2018;Mainardes et al, 2017;Singh & Verma, 2017;Teng & Wang, 2015;Thøgersen, de Barcellos, Perin, & Zhou, 2015b).…”

“…Only few empirical evidence on consumption of organic food exists in context to emerging markets in Asia such as in India (Khare & Pandey, 2017;Misra & Singh, 2016;Nandi et al, 2016;Prakash et al, 2018;Singh & Verma, 2017;Yadav & Pathak, 2016a). However, most of these studies focused on the positive antecedents of intention and choice behavior.…”

Purchase intention of organic food under the influence of attributes, consumer trust and perceived value

“…Despite this increase, the number of studies with consumers of organic food is still small (Hsu, Chang, & Lin, 2016;Nandi, Bokelmann, Gowdru, & Dias, 2016). It is even smaller regarding consumers' intention to buy organic food, which is very relevant in this emerging market.…”

Feiras Orgânicas: agronegócio e práticas sustentáveis na cidade de São Paulo

“…Dentre os desafios para melhorar a saúde e bem-estar a população busca a prática de atividades físicas (OLIVEIRA, 2015) e uma alimentação mais saudável (CHEN, 2009;LOEBNITZ e ASCHEMANN-WITZEL, 2016), além do contato com espaços verdes (LEE e MAHESWARAN, 2010). A produção e escolha de alimentos traz implicações tanto para a saúde humana como para o meio ambiente, ou seja, refletem a preocupação com a saúde e comportamento pró-ambiental de consumidores (HORRILO et al, 2016;LOEBNITZ e ASCHEMANN-WITZEL, 2016;NANDI et al, 2016). Desde a Revolução Agrícola alimentar-se tornou-se mais fácil para o ser humano, uma vez que passou a manipular a vida de algumas espécies de plantas e animais ao redor de suas moradias (HARARI, 2015).…”
