This study's main goal was to clarify the correlation between Circular Economy Practices (CEP), Eco-Innovation (ECI), Cleaner Production (CLP), and the Resilience of Production Systems (RePS). This experiment research utilized primary data colle[...]Article
Food waste represents one of the major problems in the food industry, as it accounts for substantial social, economic, and environmental challenges due to the waste of resources along the food supply chain - such as waste of water, land, fertili[...]Article
Quantifying the sustainability of the agriculture, livestock, and agri-food industry under a homogeneous criterion is essential to strategize the implementation of sustainable development in the agri-food sector and increase the commitment of st[...]Article
The agricultural sector faces various challenges and barriers in transitioning from linear resource consumption to a circular economy. Based on the literature, four key areas of challenges are identified and discussed, conversion technology and [...]Article
This paper presents a conceptual framework that reflects the current state of thinking on tokenizing circularity in agri-food systems. The framework is built upon classifications of tokens and the key principles of circular economy and shows how[...]Article
