“…The overall conceptual framework of industrial symbiosis research in the agri-food industry was investigated using kmeans clustering and correspondence analysis (Mitsuhiro and Yadohisa, 2015). Multiple correspondence analysis (MCA) is a multidimensional statistical approach that dates back to Hirschfeld (1935) and it is commonly utilized in marketing, and in particular for multidimensional mapping (Raimondo et al, 2022).…”

Industrial symbiosis is an eco-innovative system concept that is based on a circular economy and industrial ecology ideas. This process comprises the movement of materials, energy, and skills across enterprises located within eco-industrial parks, and strives to provide economic, environmental, and social competitive advantages for all the involved parties. Considering that the agri-food system creates a vast quantity of by-products along the supply chain, it is a sector that has huge potential within material and energy recovery systems and fits well into eco-industrial parks. The current study is a literature review that aims to evaluate the interest exhibited so far by scientific research in the topic of industrial symbiosis in the agri-food sector and to highlight the primary analytical techniques that have been used for this topic. Using the paradigm of multiple correspondence analysis, a content analysis was conducted from which the major themes of the researched phenomena emerged. The results indicate that the topic areas are unrelated and somewhat distant from each other. The analyzed case studies have revealed that the authors had neglected the communicative and collaborative elements among stakeholders, and instead focused on the potential use of some tools and approaches. Furthermore, it has been hypothesized that the hiding of information within a supply chain prevents industrial symbiosis procedures from being implemented. This research suggests the necessity of creating communication and cooperation platforms among stakeholders, which would promote the introduction of new techniques and tools for the development of circular production systems.

“…Therefore, this study fills this gap in the literature by empirically investigating the sociopsychological antecedents of consumer readiness toward CFC. Previous studies have analyzed the antecedents of food consumption through the lens of cognitive-behavioral models (Gallagher et al, 2022;Dorce et al, 2021;Raimondo et al, 2022), identifying external and internal factors affecting consumer behavior. Internal factors include personal motivation, values, attitude, knowledge and emotions ( Capien_ e et al, 2021).…”

PurposeThis study empirically explores the factors that influence consumers’ readiness toward engagement in circular food consumption.Design/methodology/approachA conceptual model based on the motivation–opportunity–ability (MOA) framework was developed. In addition to all the classical relationships in this theoretical framework, respondents' age and education were added to the model. An online survey was conducted, resulting in an overall sample of 411 Italian participants. Data were statistically analyzed by using partial least squares structural equation modeling (PLS-SEM).FindingsThe results indicated that motivation, opportunity and ability had positive effects on consumers’ readiness toward engagement in circular food consumption (CFC). Of all the constructs, intrinsic motivation had the most significant impact on consumers’ readiness toward engagement in CFC. The results also showed that sociodemographic traits—particularly age and gender—significantly influenced consumer readiness toward engagement in CFC. Practical and policy implications are proposed based on the study findings.Originality/valueThe study analyzes factors influencing consumers' readiness to engage in CFC. While great attention has been paid toward circular economy (CE) implementation in food consumption, empirical evidences on how to prompt the consumers' readiness toward CFC are still lacking. More specifically, the authors explore for the first time, sociopsychological factors affecting consumers' readiness to reduce, reuse and recycle technical components of food products, using the MOA theory as conceptual model.

“…Perceived behavioral control is “the perceived ease or difficulty of performing the behavior” [ 22 ] (p. 188). If an individual perceives their limitations in performing a particular behavior, they are less likely to form a behavioral intention in that direction [ 22 , 56 ]. After a meta-analytic review of both TPB and TRA, Armitage and Conner [ 57 ] stated that TPB has a higher efficacy as a predictor of behavior than TRA.…”

The movement toward smart farming, which has productivity and eco-friendly roles, is emerging in the foodservice industry in the form of indoor smart farm restaurants. The purpose of this study was to investigate the consumer decision-making processes in the context of indoor smart farm restaurants. The investigational framework was designed around the norm activation model (NAM) and the theory of planned behavior (TPB), with the moderating role of age. In particular, this study merged NAM and TPB to assess the effect of awareness of consumption consequences on consumers’ attitudes as well as the role played by subjective norms in the formation of personal norms. Data were collected from 304 respondents in South Korea. As a result of structural equation modeling, the proposed hypotheses of causal relationships were generally supported, excluding only the relationship between subjective norm and behavioral intention. The moderating role of age was identified in the relationships between (1) subjective norm and attitude, and (2) personal norm and behavioral intention. This study presents not only theoretical contributions as the first empirical study on consumer behavior in the context of indoor smart farm restaurants but also presents practical suggestions from the perspective of green marketing.
