Abstract

Addressing labor issues is crucial to agrifood value chain analysis, improvements and sustainability. However, the specific contribution of value chain approaches to discussions on labor in agriculture is still a research gap. To fill this gap, we reviewed the international literature on labor in agrifood value chains. We performed a scientometric analysis of the articles indexed in Scopus, which was composed by a bibliometric, diachronic and synchronic analysis. The main results show that labor in agrifood value chains is a relative new scientific community. Researchers’ interest evolved around three hotspots over the past 20 years, and five consolidated research domains. Our review provides an overview about the main characteristics of a rising scientific community, and a synthesis of knowledge produced to support scientific innovation on labor in agrifood value chains. Regarding chain agents, our results stress the importance of governance for improving employment and working conditions to promote chain sustainability.

农业食品价值链中的劳动力:来自Scopus的科学计量学综述

解决劳工问题对农业食品价值链的分析、改进和可持续性至关重要。然而，价值链方法对农业劳动问题讨论的具体贡献仍然是一个研究空白。为了填补这一空白，我们回顾了农业食品价值链中劳动力的国际文献。我们对Scopus收录的文章进行了科学计量分析，包括文献计量分析、历时分析和共时分析。主要研究结果表明，农业食品价值链中的劳动是一个相对较新的科学领域。在过去的20年里，研究人员的兴趣围绕着三个热点和五个整合的研究领域发展。我们的综述概述了新兴科学界的主要特征，以及为支持农业食品价值链中劳动力的科学创新而产生的知识综合。关于连锁代理商，我们的研究结果强调了治理对于改善就业和工作条件以促进连锁可持续性的重要性。
