The book addresses the gap that exists in sustainable value chain
development in the context of developing and emerging economies in
meeting the sustainable development goals. The book adopts a
holistic approach and discusses significant aspects of the topic
such as challenges, opportunities, best practices, technology and
innovation, business models, and policy formulation. The chapters
focus on all the existing and potential actors in the value chain.
Comprising invited chapters from leading researchers, policymakers,
practitioners, and academicians working on this topic, this edited
book is useful for scientists, researchers, students, research
scholars, and practitioners as it builds the latest
interdisciplinary knowledge in the area. An important aspect of the
book is the case studies of already ongoing projects from various
emerging economies around the world. Contributions are divided into
four sections-sustainable food systems and circular economy:
tackling resource use, efficiency, food loss, and waste problems;
technology and innovation for food value chain development; toward
responsible food consumption; linking small farmers to markets:
markets, institutions, and trade. Significantly, the book is
organized in the context of Sustainable Development Goals and has
direct relevance and linkages with SDG 1 (poverty alleviation), SDG
2 (zero hunger), SDG 3 (good health and well-being), SDG 4 (quality
education), SDG 5 (gender equality), SDG 12 (responsible
consumption and production), SDG 13 (climate action), and SDG 17
(partnerships).
