Academic and corporate interest in reverse logistics (RL) has risen considerably in recent years. In this context, the objective of this study was to identify the drivers that enable RL practice in an emerging economy. Firstly, international peer-reviewed publications on RL were used to develop a RL environment framework representing the main RL internal and external influences. Secondly, a case-based research was conducted in a large manufacturing company located in Southern Brazil. The results indicated that the most cited driver in the RL literature, the government and legislation, was not a main influence on the studied company. Environmental legislation is still limited in the country and struggles to provide incentives to increase materials recycling. An economic factor related to materials value recovery was also found to drive the backward flow. Finally, knowledge of the RL driving forces may support industries to better implement and manage reverse flows and to bridge the gap between existing and future solutions for reverse supply chains.

“…External factors include pressures from government and regulatory bodies, customers, suppliers and competitors (Carter and Ellram, 1998;Lin, 2007;Peng and Lin, 2008;Zhu et al, 2007). For instance, Rogers and Tibben-Lembke (1999) and Daher et al (2006) argued that the main reasons that cause firms to make efforts to adopt reverse logistics are: Extensive review of the available literature reveals four basic drivers for reverse logistics: regulations, customer pressures, social responsibility and expected business benefits.…”

Reverse logistics becomes a major issue of concern due to its strategic importance in alleviating environmental problems and generating economic benefits for business organisations. However, little is known about the actual drivers that motivate business firms to adopt reverse logistics initiatives. This study utilised survey data to examine the effects of four drivers: regulations, customer pressures, social responsibility and expected business benefits on reverse logistics in the Malaysian manufacturing sector. The results suggest that reverse logistics is affected only by expected business benefits. This result indicates that business firms give considerable importance to the expected returns from reverse logistics initiatives as a major stimulator for the adoption of these initiatives. The results provide insight into why Malaysian firms adopt reverse logistics activities. They also provide managers and policy-makers with recommendations that can be used in setting up appropriate policies to encourage business firms to adopt reverse logistics initiatives.

“…O custo de transporte compreende toda a movimentação de produtos, desde a origem até o destino, e se apresenta como um dos mais representativos na formação do preço final do produto (DAHER; SILVA;FONSECA, 2006). No trabalho foi considerado o trajeto feito pelo produto pós-colheita da fazenda do agricultor até a Cooperativa Alfa, e dessa até os Centros de Recepção para os quais os produtos são vendidos para o Pnae.…”

“…Conforme os resultados apresentados na Tabela 5, nota-se que o custo de transporte é o mais relevante em todas as categorias, compreendendo R$ 0,86 por kg, representando 50,59% dos produtos In Natura, R$ 44,5% dos Minimamente Processados e 42,16% dos Embalados. Esse resultado vai ao encontro dos achados de Ballou (2001), Bowersox e Closs (2001), Daher, Silva e Fonseca (2006) e Kussano e Batalha (2010), os quais mostram que o custo com transporte é o mais significativo entre todos os direcionadores de custos logísticos.…”

Mercados institucionais: comercialização e aferição de produtos orgânicos Introdução Para dar início à discussão é importante apresentar as diferenças entre agricultura orgânica, agricultura familiar e agroecologia. A agroecologia trata de questões relacionadas a movimentos sociais de manejo ecológico dos recursos naturais, analisando a dimensão tecnológica sem uso de defensivos, com manejo sustentável dos recursos naturais, relação harmoniosa com a natureza, e considerando a dimensão política e social, tendo como base a produção familiar (CAPORAL; PETERSEN, 2012). Os sistemas agroecológicos abordam uma complexidade muito grande das interações das várias combinações rurais possíveis, em que a diversidade é a palavra-chave de sua definição, tanto dos insumos necessários para a produção, dos diferentes ambientes envolvidos, quanto de práticas inseridas nesse sistema (OLIVEIRA et al., 2008). O sistema orgânico inclui várias características do agroecológico, porém, pode trabalhar exclusivamente com a produção de um único produto, diferentemente da agroecológica em que o princípio da diversidade da produção é obrigatório (
