“…More generally, with the purpose of exploring how farmers manage stakeholder relationships in the supply chain to reduce food waste, Dora (2020) identified shared value creation, goal congruence, and geographical proximity as critical factors in establishing collaborative relationships in circular economy contexts. Collaboration also incentivizes forms of knowledge sharing, as evidenced by Rodrigues et al. (2021).…”

PurposeThe purpose of this paper is to appraise and evaluate empirical research on circular economy in food systems, consolidating the existing knowledge and identifying shortcomings in this emerging body of research.Design/methodology/approachThe authors conducted a systematic literature review of 136 studies from the electronic databases Scopus and Web of Science. The authors also developed a thematic analysis and summarized the results in a framework.FindingsThe authors identified seven critical issues for the transition to circular food systems: consumer behavior, multistakeholder coordination, business models, digital technologies, barriers, transition processes and performance and measurement systems. Moreover, the authors provide an agenda for future research on these topics.Originality/valueWhile reviews on the circular economy are spreading rapidly, no reviews have comprehensively addressed the critical issues for the transition to circular food systems in the business, management, and organization domains.

“…Studies reveal that the lack of studies on economic impacts and high investment costs is an obstacle and barrier to the adoption of CE (Gedam et al, 2021). The presence of innovative technologies and solutions represent prerequisites for the adaptability and development of CE (Boccia et al, 2021; Dhir et al, 2020; Gedam et al, 2021; Rodrigues et al, 2021).…”

Through a systematic literature review (SLR), this study aims to analyze the progress achieved in international literature regarding the circular economy (CE) of food waste. As a result, we realized that most of the authors considered had proposed different mathematical models, chemical and thermal treatment methods, statistical, and conceptual frameworks, besides that quantitative and qualitative studies to explain the processes related to the waste and CE in the agrifood sector. Furthermore, in business, management, and accounting, the CE of food waste focuses on added value and optimizing energy use rather than approaching the principles of reduction, reuse, and recycling. This study constitutes a first attempt at understanding the CE of food waste in business, management, and accounting fields of knowledge. This SLR can assist decision-makers, managers, and governments to formulate policies and strategies to effectively implement CE in agrifood supply chains.

“…TaskRabbit), appliances, and drills (Hamari et al, 2016), Through CC, some governments have effectively optimised their resources, decreased the cost of resource ownership, shared rich and timely information, and improved their decision-making capacity (Benoit et al, 2017;Ganapati & Reddick, 2018). For example, CC efforts in agriculture have enabled the sharing of machinery such as tractors and chainsaws, and the exchange of seeds and seedlings to improve the productivity of small farms (Rodrigues et al, 2021).…”

This paper reports on the design and usefulness of a digital government innovation to share limited government resources in low-income countries (LICs) based on the sharing economy paradigm, collaborative consumption (CC). The innovation was developed using design science research and the usefulness was evaluated using the Unified Theory of Acceptance and Use of Technology (UTAUT) model (n=321) with Structural Equation Modeling (SEM). The key findings reveal that performance expectancy, effort expectancy, and facilitating conditions are significant factors of the behavioral intention to adopt the CC platform. Social influence was however not a significant factor. These key findings suggest the practical usefulness of the CC platform in motivating the sharing of limited government resources and overcoming traditional government bureaucracy. The study contributes to information systems theory in advocating for the adoption of a sharing economy ethos as a means to maximizing limited government resources in LICs, and in creating digital artifacts using design science research methods. The study recommends for LIC governments to further extend the resource sharing capability to include non-government organisations and citizens.
