Driven by the search for economic sustainability in cocoa production, this group has achieved full sustainability through production chain upgrading, enabling the agroforestry system’s (cabruca) continuity in their properties. In order to understand how and why this process happened, our conceptual model advances on the Multi-Level Perspective (MLP) framework, as it is an applied way of analyzing different niche transformations within the same regime, a typical situation in agrifood systems in emerging markets. Our analyses and empirical evidence suggest that interpersonal relationships play a crucial role in this process, particularly developing concepts and strategies, and in establishing operational structures. Rules and structure formalization may replace interpersonal relationships, as observed when the transition goes forward. Our findings evidence knowledge gathering, cooperation among actors, and information and support exchanging as critical factors to trigger the niche transition process.","PeriodicalId":49187,"journal":{"name":"International Food and Agribusiness Management Review","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":1.5,"publicationDate":"2024-03-13","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"140245271","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"经济学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

In their roles, cooperatives undertake internal coordination of activities which may include enforcement measures, provision of quality inputs, internal control, and negotiation of favourable terms of exchange with buyers. However, limited attention has been given to understanding how cooperatives’ performance in the internal coordination of activities either promotes or hinders the continued adoption of agricultural technologies among cooperative members. We conducted a case study of the dairy sector in West Java, Indonesia, and utilised a mixed-method approach combining insight from dairy cooperative board members and dairy farming households. Our results suggest that the dis-adoption of dairy technologies is rooted in weak or non-existent monitoring and enforcement mechanisms to ensure input and output quality, the absence of price incentives, and inadequate provision of extension services. Furthermore, the lack of tight monitoring and control mechanisms reduces the cooperatives’ bargaining power with input providers and milk buyers. Unless these issues within the cooperatives are addressed, continued adoption of recommended dairy farming practices by smallholder farmers will not be sustained.","PeriodicalId":49187,"journal":{"name":"International Food and Agribusiness Management Review","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":1.5,"publicationDate":"2024-03-13","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"140244816","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"经济学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

These enclosed systems provide year-round production of pesticide-free fresh food, even in cities with less favourable climates, addressing food deserts and creating employment opportunities in urban areas. However, the industry faces significant challenges, primarily stemming from substantial investment and operating costs, exacerbated by a limited understanding of the input-output relationship within these systems. This study employs a bioeconomic framework to establish a foundational production function based on growth cycle duration (time) and required growing area (space). Through a partial budget analysis, a 19-day production schedule was identified to provide the highest contribution margin to profits. Results set the minimum size of this hypothetical lettuce indoor farm at 273 m2, rendering it suitable for installation in urban areas. The farm harvests 118 kg per day, within an 800 m2 growing area distributed across four vertically stacked shelves. Estimates of economic output sensitivity to exogenous factors in the US context are also presented, along with a comparison between cost-minimizing and revenue-maximizing strategies.","PeriodicalId":49187,"journal":{"name":"International Food and Agribusiness Management Review","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":1.5,"publicationDate":"2024-02-23","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"140435432","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"经济学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The European beekeeping sector is facing a number of constraints that make it difficult to operate, and the Covid-19 pandemic has posed new challenges for beekeepers. The purpose of the study is to examine the resilience of beekeeping businesses to the most important problems affecting beekeepers and the Covid-19 pandemic. The research analyses the role of marketing and profitability and how they influence the resilience. Variables obtained from online questioning of a representative sample of Hungarian beekeepers (N = 297). Cluster analysis was used to validate the results. Using a Two-step clustering model, three clusters of beekeepers were identified: a non-resilient; a resilient, but not proactive and not very profitable and a resilient, proactive and profitable cluster. According to the research, the resilience of beekeepers is shaped by several factors. Well-trained, long-established beekeepers who seek to differentiate their products from their competitors’ overcome the difficulties caused by the pandemic and other beekeeping problems much more easily. Very important factors resulting in remarkable business resilience are the number of used subsidies and the number of cooperations.","PeriodicalId":49187,"journal":{"name":"International Food and Agribusiness Management Review","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":1.5,"publicationDate":"2024-02-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"139873092","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"经济学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
