“…And if this relationship can no longer support itself, partner change may also require complementary and unplanned costs. Lastly, performance and even product quality can be compromised (Fleury et al ., 2016; Love et al. , 2020).…”

“…A characteristic of this scenario is that trust develops over time, requires consistency, and significantly predicts chain actors' supply chain governance choices, agreeing with Aggarwal and Srivastava (2016), Manfredini and Capik (2022), Love et al (2020), andDlamini-Mazibuko et al (2019). The interaction of interpersonal trust and relational experience helps to strengthen trust the study of Belhadi et al (2021) supports that positive relational experience is critical to shaping Sustainable Supply Chain Governance (SSCG).…”

PurposeThe purpose of this work is to study the relationships of trust in a local agri-food supply chain in Southern Brazil. In an unsustainable context, where the number of mariculturists is decreasing, the authors seek to identify what the factors are and how they contribute to this problem, as well as find solutions aimed at the sustainability of that chain.Design/methodology/approachThe authors carried out qualitative research with 15 semi-structured interviews that took place in the year 2021. The thematic analysis of the results applied the IRAMUTEQ software and the assessment of the narratives was guided by prior thematic analysis.FindingsThe supply chain under investigation requires better organisation. Communication and interpersonal trust proved important in the relationship between producers and control bodies. The university, as a seed supplier, needs predictability and efficiency to convey inter-organisational trust. Informal relationships are interpersonal and extremely trust-based and inter-organisational trust increases the performance of establishments and promotes the development of innovative structures. Furthermore, in crisis periods interpersonal trust increases.Practical implicationsThe results allow policymakers to plan better their actions and build more effective tactics in order to reach sustainable development. This work is also important for stakeholders and managers, as it guides improvements in management, governance and sustainability of agri-food supply chains.Originality/valueAn unprecedented research was done on the studied supply chain, knowing the relationships of trust among them, identifying peculiar partnerships and recognising some constructs and outcomes of trust.

“…This would be expected to foster higher prices in the case of declining harvest, which could further incentivize oyster exploitation at low population levels. Finally, the Type II curve is saturating, as might be expected when handling time is limited, whereby only so much time exists in the day to travel to the reefs, fish, and then deliver oysters to the necessary "cold" supply chain (Love et al 2020). From a public health perspective, the National Shellfish Sanitation Program and the Interstate Shellfish Sanitation Conference have established ordinances that limit oyster harvest times to reduce exposure to D r a f t consumers of Vibio vulnificus bacterium (U.S. Food and Drug Administration 2015).…”

Given the global collapse of most oyster fisheries, we explored the conditions under which the interaction of oysters and fishers can lead to multiple system equilibria, and how those conditions might affect management strategies and recovery efforts. Using simple, but plausible, models of oyster fisheries, we identified tipping points, multiple equilibria, and hysteresis under a wide range of realistic model parameterizations. In collapsed systems with hysteresis, recovery of the system will require far less harvest than that which precipitated the collapse, and recovery times can be on decadal scales. We also derived optimal, non-equilibrium, state-dependent fishing policies and found that these policies can perform well, but are accompanied by high variation in the allowable harvest. Critically, these optimal policies also require constant monitoring of system state and frequent control of fishing effort. Finally, we examined habitat-enhancement scenarios that mimic proposed and ongoing restoration programs. We found that these efforts can increase the number of fishers the system can support and reduce otherwise long recovery times in collapsed systems.

“…The quality loss rate was 2% for distributors (Table 1), and was split among product returns (69%) and unsold inventory (31%). Communicating roles, preferences and expectations between supply chain members is critical for food safety 44 and could also reduce product returns. Food safety recalls played a small role in distributor loss (0.06% or 1.4 tonnes/yr), but are important to control foodborne disease and allergen exposures.…”

Food loss and waste (FLW) is a major challenge to food system sustainability, including aquatic foods. Few data exist on aquatic FLW outside of small-scale fisheries, with major gaps in aquaculture species that make up half of global production. We investigated aquatic FLW in the food supply of the United States (US), the largest importer of aquatic food globally. We show that there are significant differences in FLW among species, production technology, origin, and stage of supply chain. We estimate that the total FLW was 22.7%, significantly lower than the 50% earlier reported in the literature, illustrating the importance of applying a disaggregated approach. Production losses from imports contribute over a quarter of total FLW, which strongly illustrates the importance of implementing systems approaches and multinational efforts to reduce FLW. The findings inform prioritization of solutions, including areas of needed innovations, government incentives, policy change, infrastructure and equity.
