Resilience-by-Design and Resilience-by-Intervention in supply chains for remote and indigenous communities COMMENT

Emerson Mahoney et al.

Summary: The fragility of food security and supply chains for remote and Indigenous communities has been revealed by the COVID-19 pandemic. In this article, we emphasize the challenges faced by the Tribal Population of Noepe (Martha's Vineyard) and advocate for the incorporation of Resilience-by-Design and Resilience-by-Intervention in supply chain management.

Identifying critical energy-water paths and clusters within the urban agglomeration using machine learning algorithm

Yakui Ding et al.

Summary: Using the structure-based singular value decomposition method, this study examined the energy-water nexus network in the Pearl River Delta urban agglomeration from 2012 to 2015. The findings indicate that exports are the largest final demand for energy-related water and water-related energy, Shenzhen relies on other cities for E-water and W-energy, and Guangzhou's electricity and equipment manufacture drive the largest energy-water clusters.

Nutrient-extended input-output (NutrIO) method for the food nitrogen footprint

Azusa Oita et al.

Summary: Agro-food systems require nutrient input from various sources, but the loss of nutrients in supply chains poses a threat to human and ecosystem health. A novel NutrIO method is proposed to evaluate direct and indirect nutrient inputs throughout the supply chains, providing quantitative insights for improving nutrient use efficiency in agro-food supply chains.

Water-Food Nexus through the Lens of Virtual Water Flows: The Case of India

Suparana Katyaini et al.

Summary: The paper examines the transition from water scarcity to water security in water-scarce economies like India through the lens of the water-food nexus and virtual water flows concept. It finds that the concentration of virtual water outflows from highly water-scarce states exacerbates water scarcity, with governance priorities including groundwater overexploitation, water and soil pollution, and uncertainty in rainfall. The study highlights the importance of sustainable intensification of agriculture and rectification of unsustainable virtual water flow patterns for the future of developing economies grappling with water scarcity and fragmented environmental governance systems.

Integrative design of the optimal biorefinery and bioethanol supply chain under the water-energy-food-land (WEFL) nexus framework

Chanhee You et al.

Summary: This study presents a comprehensive decision model for the integrative design of a biorefinery for bioethanol production and its supply chain under the WEFL nexus framework, aiming to minimize total costs to meet society's needs. The model was validated through a case study in Jeju Island and showed that the nexus optimization scenario required higher energy supply costs but could satisfy society demands with smaller land, water, and energy consumption compared to the cost optimization scenario.

Global land use of diets in a small island community: a case study of Palau in the Pacific

Shinichiro Nakamura et al.

Summary: Modern dietary habits in communities are closely linked to the global food supply chain, and the impact of dietary choices on community-level consumption activities is crucial. This study surveyed the diets of a small island community in the Republic of Palau, finding that the community heavily depends on processed and imported foods, and relies on external land use through the global food supply chain.

Calculation of a food consumption nitrogen footprint for Germany

Laura Klement et al.

Summary: Reactive nitrogen released into the environment has negative implications for various aspects, and a nitrogen footprint can help assess the impact of personal choices. The N-Calculator tool, originally based on US data, requires revision when applied to other countries due to differences in food sector conditions. A revised N-Calculator for Germany, based on German food production data, showed varying nitrogen losses for different products, with animal-based products leading to higher losses. Validation of the results at the national level showed good agreement with statistical data on nitrogen flows in Germany.

Supply chain diversity buffers cities against food shocks

Michael Gomez et al.

Summary: Increasing a city's food supply chain diversity can boost its resistance to mild to moderate food shocks by up to 15%. An intensity-duration-frequency model linking food shock risk to supply chain diversity has been developed, based on empirical data from metropolitan areas in the USA during years of moderate to severe droughts. This model explains a city's resistance to food shocks as a function of its food supply chain's Shannon diversity and provides a simple and operationally useful tool for policymakers to improve resilience to food supply shocks.

Sustainability standards in global agrifood supply chains

Eva-Marie Meemken et al.

Summary: Sustainability standards have varying effects on different supply chain actors and crops, but are insufficient to ensure food system sustainability and equity objectives in agrifood supply chains. The ongoing proliferation of certification schemes in the food sector calls for continuous evaluation of their impacts.

Food systems are responsible for a third of global anthropogenic GHG emissions

M. Crippa et al.

Summary: Data on GHG emissions from the global food system are often scattered and unavailable, but EDGAR-FOOD provides a consistent database from 1990 to 2015. The largest contributions to food-system emissions come from agriculture and supply chain activities, representing 34% of total global GHG emissions.
