“…58 Shortening food chains involves reducing intermediaries (such as wholesalers, processors, or shippers) and focusing on better linking supply with markets, including direct-to-consumers (e.g., farmers' markets, community-supported agriculture), expanded community food production (e.g., urban gardens, seed exchanges), and decreased corporate control (e.g., cooperatives rather than vertically structured agribusinesses). 59 Such steps have the potential to lead to local foodsheds that increase traceability and consumer confidence, improve product quality (including freshness and health concerns), and lower environmental impacts (including reduced packaging, decreased food waste, and closing nutrient cycles, although the impact on carbon emissions remains highly dependent on context). 60 However, shifting from global supply chains to more localized production will be challenging in balancing efficiency with resilience, and will need to be planned with the participation of multiple stakeholders, including consumers.…”

“…Through the study results, only 19.3% of the survey respondents were found to grow their own fruits and vegetables (refer to Table 4). In the wake of COVID-19, a genuine need for enhancing urban agriculture and encouraging local food production has therefore been realized around the world to supplement the traditional food supply from rural areas [57,72,73]. To ensure sustainable food production and consumption at city level, the city governments should encourage the local residents to practice agriculture at neighborhood level.…”

“…Az élelmiszerláncok lerövidítése magában foglalja a közvetítő szereplők (például nagykereskedők, feldolgozók, szállítmányozók) számának csökkentését és a termelés és a fogyasztás közötti közvetlenebb kapcsolat kialakítását. Ez testet ölthet például közvetlen termelői-fogyasztói együttműködésekben (például gazdálkodói piacok, közösség által támogatott mezőgazdaság), közösségi élelmiszertermelésben (például közösségi kertek és magbörzék), vagy a nagyvállalati (nagytőkés) befolyás csökkenésében (például vertikálisan strukturált agrárvállalkozások helyett gazdaszövetkezetek) [59]. A fentiekhez hasonló kezdeményezések elősegítik a helyi élelmiszerrendszerek kialakulását, ahol átláthatóbb a termelés, nő a fogyasztói bizalom, javul a termékek minősége (ideértve a frissességet és az egész-* A just-in-time rendszerek lényege, hogy a beszállított anyagok a termelési folyamat egyes szakaszaiban mindig éppen időben állnak rendelkezésre, s így a készletek minimalizálhatók.…”
