“…(1) First order effect: Direct impacts on the environment due to the physical existence and use of IT, often labeled as "Green IT" (e.g., Dao et al 2011;Molla 2009;Murugesan 2008;Karanasios, Cooper, Deng, Molla, and Pittayachawan 2010;Schmidt, Erek, Kolbe, and Zarnekow 2011;Opitz, Thies, Erek, Kolbe, and Zarnekow 2013;Reiter, Fettke, and Loos 2013;Ryoo and Koo 2013;) (2) Second order effect: Enabling effects of ICTs in other sectors such as energy, logistics, mobility, and manufacturing that lead to more sustainable business operations, often labeled as "Green (by) IS" (Watson et al 2010a;Watson, Boudreau, Li, and Levis 2010b;Butler 2011;Kranz and Picot 2011a;Sarkis, Zhu, and Lai 2011;Loeser, Erek, and Zarnekow 2012;Brandt, Feuerriegel, and Neumann 2013;Busse et al 2013;Hilpert et al 2013;Stiel and Teuteberg 2013;Wunderlich et al 2013;Koo, Chung, and Ryoo 2014) (3) Third order effect: Systemic effects of ICTs causing medium-or long-term changes of behavior and economic structures towards more eco-sustainable practices, often labeled as "Green IS" (Watson et al 2011;e.g., Loock et al 2013;Seidel et al 2013) To analyze where the field is going, we have conducted a literature review of articles in major IS journals. Our search included the AIS basket of eight leading IS journals (European Journal of Information Systems, Information Systems Journal, Information Systems Research, Journal of AIS, Journal of Information Technology, Journal of MIS, Journal of Strategic Information Systems, and MIS Quarterly), Electronic Markets, and Business & Information Systems Engineering.…”

“…As a basic industry, agriculture is essential to society, especially in developing countries where agriculture accounts for a relatively large share of total economic output [10] and is closely related to poverty alleviation [11]. In terms of financial means, only a small amount of effort has been exerted to promote sustainable development; methods applied by enterprises mainly focus on technology, products, and production [12][13][14]. Poor access to capital for farmers can be an obstacle to the implementation of sustainable agricultural technologies and practices in underprivileged regions [15,16].…”
