Corporate actions, Governance, Loss reduction, foodsAbstract
Melhorar a nossa compreensão sobre a perda e desperdício de alimentos (PDA) em todo o mundo e contribuir para o desenvolvimento de sistemas agroalimentares mais sustentáveis é o foco deste artigo. Para isso, analisamos teorias relacionadas ao tema, relações de governança em sistemas agroalimentares e ações realizadas por atores da rede de abastecimento de alimentos, insumos e/ou materiais, atores do setor de processamento e compradores. Realizamos uma revisão quantitativa sistemática da literatura para mapear a literatura disponível sobre PDA. Foi utilizada a ferramenta bibliométrica quantitativa Bibliometrix do software R. Sobre os resultados, as principais abordagens incluíram a análise do ciclo de vida para a avaliação dos impactos ambientais, avaliação da cadeia de abastecimento e ações das partes interessadas, estimativas de peso das perdas de alimentos, discussões sobre economia circular e análise de transições sociotécnicas. Os artigos que abordaram governança mostraram a necessidade dos stakeholders contribuírem para o desenvolvimento de soluções de embalagens com melhor perfil ambiental. A originalidade do estudo reside na abordagem do tema e na adoção de perspectivas pouco exploradas, como teorias que discutem PDA e práticas de governança em cadeias de suprimentos. O estudo incorpora diversas disciplinas, adotando uma abordagem multidisciplinar.
