Since various food date labeling (FDL) systems exist worldwide, consumers’ confusion and misunderstanding of FDL are unavoidable, which may result in a large amount of food waste at the consumer stage. To what extent consumers’ FDL cognition affects their food waste behaviors and intentions...

Establishing a clear link between prices of conventional and niche product versions can help address challenges associated with anticipating these prices and attenuate concerns related to thin market conditions. In that regard, we analyze the price dynamics, differentiating between agri-product...

This study examines price transmission dynamics in the Hungarian pork market from 2017 to 2023, focusing on the effects of price controls implemented to combat inflation. Inflation and price control policies have been central topics in economic research due to their significant impacts on market...

Studies assessing the economic impact of the F2F strategy estimate significant losses in EU-27 agricultural production and global changes in markets that will affect other regions. We contribute with an estimate of the impact on individual EU Member States, which has not been assessed so far....

Industrial grain production, driven by large-scale monoculture and intensive use of synthetic inputs, has become a cornerstone of global food systems. However, its environmental, social, and economic sustainability is increasingly called into question. The depletion of soil health, biodiversity...

Malnutrition poses significant challenges to African food systems. Addressing these challenges requires synergistic strategies informed by a comprehensive understanding of consumers' food preferences and characteristics, which necessitates the identification of more homogeneous consumer groups....
