Emerging issues and challenges in agri-food supply chain

Abstract Globalization and free trade policies coupled with consumers’ demand for safe and high-quality foods have created pressure on various stakeholders (key players) attached within the agri-food supply chain. Influence, contributions, and socioeconomic and environmental factors are major players in achieving a successful flow of supply chain. Globally, various techniques and conceptual models have been proposed to render the agri-food supply chain effective and profitable. However, there are still several gaps and emerging challenges in the supply chain hindering fruitful, sustainable food production. In this chapter, an attempt has been made to identify and highlight the present world scenario and challenges encountered along the agri-food supply chain and its future prospects.
