Introduction
Aims and Scopes
- Sustainable Agriculture and Food Systems:
Research focusing on sustainable practices in agriculture, including organic farming, conservation agriculture, and the integration of local knowledge to enhance productivity and sustainability. - Policy Analysis and Development:
Exploration of agricultural policies, food security strategies, and the impact of governance on food systems across Mediterranean countries. - Economic Dynamics in Agri-food Systems:
Studies examining the economic aspects of agriculture and food supply chains, including market dynamics, value chain analysis, and the role of small-scale farmers. - Environmental Impact and Resource Management:
Research on the ecological consequences of agricultural practices, including water management, climate change adaptation, and biodiversity conservation. - Consumer Behavior and Preferences:
Analysis of consumer attitudes towards food products, including sustainability perceptions, preferences for local and organic products, and the influence of labeling. - Technological Innovations in Agriculture:
Investigations into the adoption and impact of new technologies and practices in agriculture, including precision farming, digitalization, and innovative irrigation methods.
Trending and Emerging
- Sustainable Supply Chains and Food Security:
There is a growing emphasis on how sustainable supply chain practices can enhance food security, particularly in the context of small-scale farming and local production systems. - Impact of Climate Change on Agriculture:
Research increasingly focuses on specific adaptive strategies for agriculture in response to climate change, highlighting localized impacts and resilience-building measures. - Consumer Preferences for Sustainable Products:
Emerging studies are analyzing consumer attitudes towards sustainability in food products, including preferences for organic and locally sourced options, reflecting a shift in market dynamics. - Integration of Technology in Agriculture:
A significant trend is the exploration of digital tools and innovative technologies aimed at improving agricultural productivity and sustainability, including precision agriculture and smart farming techniques. - Circular Economy Approaches in Agrifood Systems:
The journal is seeing an increase in studies that discuss the integration of circular economy principles within agricultural practices, promoting waste reduction and resource efficiency.
Declining or Waning
- Traditional Agricultural Practices:
Research related to traditional farming methods and their sustainability is becoming less frequent, potentially overshadowed by the need for innovative and technology-driven approaches. - Generalized Climate Change Studies:
While climate change remains a crucial topic, the specificity of studies addressing generalized impacts without focusing on adaptive strategies or localized solutions is declining. - Diverse Crop Studies:
Research focusing broadly on various crops without a specific emphasis on sustainability or innovation seems to be waning, as the journal shifts towards more targeted studies with direct implications for policy and practice. - Broad Economic Analyses:
General economic analyses that do not directly link to agricultural practices or food systems are less prevalent, as the emphasis moves towards integrative studies connecting economics with sustainability.
