“…The phrase was also attributed multiple meanings by different authors, making it challenging to produce a coherent summary. For example, one paper about agriculture in the Baltic states examined sustainability through economic growth, rural employment, and productivity but missed environmental aspects (Sapolaitė et al, 2019). On the other hand, Maas et al (2021) investigated sustainable agriculture through environmental and biodiversity lenses in Germany and Austria but did not consider the economic dimension.…”

Recommended solutions and innovations to shape sustainable food systems need to be socioeconomically feasible to be implemented. The numerous publications and the nuance of the topic obfuscate the comprehension of the most crucial socioeconomic measures required for successful implementation and concrete policy formulation. Therefore, a clear and comprehensive overview of available evidence on sustainable food systems is needed, especially focusing on the socioeconomic feasibility, which has not been done before. To address this research gap, we systematically screened over 1700 articles and selected 349 for detailed review, investigating socioeconomic attributes corresponding to successful implementations of sustainable food system transformations. We found that sustainable food systems have various meanings across the scholarship and lack harmonized principles. Moreover, the socioeconomic effects on sustainability are often merely assumed instead of rigorously measured. According to the reviewed articles, different actors require different socioeconomic interventions to attain sustainable food systems: i) producers with strong social capital that induces trust among farmers, as well as economic incentives, have enhanced capabilities to promote sustainability, ii) consumers benefit from improved information provisioning and lower prices of sustainable food options, and iii) processors and distributors require better infrastructure to increase the availability of nutritious food and to reduce food loss and waste. Other actors, such as researchers, should disclose their findings widely, while governments should invest in collaborative policy-making and programs that push for sustainable food systems. The results provide a diverse range of efficient socioeconomic recommendations to increase sustainability in our food systems.

A systematic analysis of the evolution of the content, tasks, methodological principles of formation and implementation tools of the EU CAP is carried out. The key principles of modernization of European agricultural policy for the 2023–2027 program period are determined, namely environmental friendliness, fairness, competitiveness, on the basis of which political reforms aimed at supporting the transition to sustainable agriculture and forestry are to be implemented. The ideological basis of the new stage in the EU CAP implementation is: recognition of the needs and expectations of Europeans as a key value of the policy-making process, ensuring the multifunctionality of agricultural production, conformity to the three dimensions of sustainability – social, economic, and environmental. The targeting of the new EU CAP model, as well as the design of the action system for its implementation, underscore the traditional exclusivity of farmers’ role as stakeholders in rural development, local resource management, ensuring food security and fulfilling the societal needs of member countries’ population. The complementary nature of the sources of the EU CAP financial resources formation, which in the future are to be directed to the support of farmers' incomes, market measures and stimulation of rural development, is established. The EU's declared commitment to the global Sustainable Development Goals in the area of agricultural policy modernization is being transformed into political actions aimed at protecting the natural environment and combating climate change through the introduction of agricultural production greening programs and the expansion of the relationship between direct payments and greening rules. In addition to the ecologically oriented ideology of the SDGs, the EU CAP for 2023–2027 professes and popularizes at the global level social values, in particular, gender equality, social interaction and partnership, development of human capital, etc.

“…From this point of view, the lack of dynamics in the amounts of direct payments can create unfavourable economic conditions in the field of agriculture. Other authors focus on the importance of institutional investors to strengthen the economic prosperity of farms and their preferences at a regional level as well (Sadaf et al, 2019;Sapolaité et al, 2019;Vekic et al, 2020). Several authors have emphasized the importance and development of human labour resources at an international level and emphasized the collaboration among universities and enterprises in order to realise the strategic development of employees (Berková et al, 2019;Griffin & Coelhoso, 2019).…”
