Abstract

Today, agro-food chains constitute a focal point of critique from multiple perspectives – economic, environmental and societal – for their powerful yet quiescent role in promoting a secure path towards sustainable development. Effective and sustainable food systems accompanied by responsible use of ecosystem resources/services and societal concern can successfully meet current and future challenges. The need for sustainability, from both the demand and the production point of view, is situated at the core of policy objectives for the development of agro-food chains. In this context, the 164th EAAE Seminar organized in Chania, Greece, 5-7 September 2018, covered the topic “Preserving Ecosystem Services via Sustainable Agro-food Chains”, focusing on the necessity for sustainable food chains in a viable ecosystem analyzing their wide spectrum of interlinkages.

通过可持续农业食物链保护生态系统服务

如今，农产品食品链在促进可持续发展的安全道路方面发挥着强大而静止的作用，成为经济、环境和社会等多个角度批评的焦点。有效和可持续的粮食系统，加上负责任地利用生态系统资源/服务和社会关注，可以成功应对当前和未来的挑战。从需求和生产的角度来看，可持续性的必要性是发展农业食品链的政策目标的核心。在这方面，2018年9月5日至7日在希腊查尼亚组织的第164届EAAE研讨会涵盖了“通过可持续农业食物链保护生态系统服务”的主题，重点讨论了在可行的生态系统中建立可持续食物链的必要性，分析了其广泛的相互联系。

期刊介绍： Understanding the development of the food system requires a system view that captures the complexity of the system and its many interrelationships with its economic, social and natural environments. The Journal accepts and offers papers within this broad range of issues focussing on the management, policy, marketing, consumer aspects, transparency, e-commerce, institutional or regional development, information and communication systems, ressource economics, production economics, chain management, network economics, and similar aspects. Papers may focus on modeling, empirical research or theoretical analyis. This broad range of publication opportunities asks authors to follow clear lines of arguments and to present arguments in a convincing way that avoids unnecessary complexities of model formulations if not relevant for the support of arguments. The publication of scientific articles is complemented by a number of sections that provide room for publications with a more specific focus: ''Case studies'': A section on case studies of the ''Harvard Type'' allows the publication of studies that might build on established scientific methodology but demonstrate its use in ceratin decision environments. Case studies might be complemented by ''teaching cases'' that are kept on a database outside the journal but accessible to readers on approval by authors. ''Research Forum'': It allows to discuss newly emerging research challenges or to contribute to ongoing scientific discussions on research problems. In addition, authors might initiate a discussion on issues brought up by articles published in the journal. ''Research Notes'': It provides room for specific shorter scientific contributions with a narrow scope.
