Gómez-Limón and Sánchez-Cañizares determine the factors that influence interannual movements of farms between income categories, and to forecast future income categories of farms under several different market, climate, and policy scenarios. The results show that the income dynamics of these farms are mainly influenced by off-farm uncontrollable factors such as the output prices, the weather conditions, and the policy support.
Depetris-Chuavin et al. present a review of the costs and benefits of specific sustainability-oriented innovations, not only Economic but also social and environmental in the Mediterranean region. To achieve this goal, the paper classifies the elements being reviewed according to the nature of the innovation and stages of the product life cycle it covers.
The extent to which the use of the Internet and web technologies can enhance consumer power and psychol…ogical empowerment is analysed by Belharar and Chakor in Morocco. The results show a positive and direct effect between the use of the Internet and web technologies and the power of consumers in terms of food, and consequently their psychological empowerment in their food decision-making.
Galera-Quiles et al. analyse the factors that can influence strategic decision-making in export performances in Spanish agrifood. The results show that the age of the management is a key factor in being more export-oriented, as are the control of inputs through information and communication technologies, the implementation of environmental innovations, and partnerships with universities and research centres.
Şengül and Saner determine the sustainability level of beekeeping farms in the Aegean region of Turkey. The results showed that the economic sustainability index of beekeeping farms was 0.45, social sustainability was 0.36, environmental sustainability was 0.92, and the overall sustainability was 0.58. The results showed that transregional migratory beekeeping harmed sustainable beekeeping due to its negative effect on both bee welfare and cost increase.
González-Azcárate et al. analyse the potential opportunities and challenges of Civic crowdfunding (CiC) with matchfunding (MF) as a policy tool for local governments to finance place based food initiatives and promote sustainable local food systems. The results highlight the potential of CiC / MF to help local food project promoters to raise financial resources, as well as learn marketing skills and build a social support base around their projects.
Resano Ezcaray et al. focus on an array of meat attributes and their role in consumers’ preferences, from both consumers’ own perspective and the opinions of other value chain agents in Spain. Results reveal the existence of a niche market for more differentiated beef, where health qualities and local origin are particularly appealing. The authors found a certain degree of divergence between the agents’ valuations, being wider with those placed farther from the consumer, as is the cattle farmer.
Öztornaci and Şengül aim to measure the impact of social support expenditures on poverty in Turkey. The study finds that multidimensional poverty values are approximately 2.5 times higher than one-dimensional values. Government spending was found to have no impact on multidimensional poverty, while private expenditure had a relatively minor impact.
