Toward more sustainable food supply chains: insights from short food supply chains in Jordan

Frontiers in Sustainability
Introduction Short Food Supply Chains (SFSCs) are promoted as a pathway to more sustainable agri-food systems. Jordan’s fresh-produce sector, which relies heavily on local markets, offers a valuable setting to examine how SFSCs support sustainability.

Longitudinal Changes in Adiposity After a Youth Sport‐Related Knee Injury: Informing Posttraumatic Osteoarthritis Prevention

Arthritis Care &Research, EarlyView.
Objective Youth who experience a sport‐related knee injury have elevated odds of becoming overweight or developing obesity in 3 to 10 years, compounding their risk for posttraumatic osteoarthritis (PTOA). To inform prevention strategies, this study compared patterns of adiposity change between youth with a sport‐related knee injury and uninjured youth ...

Laser‐Induced Graphene from Waste Almond Shells

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Almond shells, an abundant agricultural by‐product, are repurposed to create a fully bioderived almond shell/chitosan composite (ASC) degradable in soil. ASC is converted into laser‐induced graphene (LIG) by laser scribing and proposed as a substrate for transient electronics.

Short food supply chains – consumer preferences [PDF]

Kratki lanci opskrbe hranom imaju ključnu ulogu u povezivanju lokalnih proizvođača s potrošačima, promicanju održivosti, podupiranju lokalnih gospodarstava i omogućavanju pristupa svježim, visokonutritivnim proizvodima. Međutim, njihovo tržište još je nerazvijeno zbog neusklađenosti između potražnje potrošača i ponude proizvođača.

Wearable Smart Patches on Sustainable Chitosan With Reversible Microbial Growth‐Inhibitory Properties

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Chitosan, a polysaccharide upcycled from biowaste, has long promised sustainable, biocompatible, and antimicrobial films and devices, an appeal reinforced by its recent regulatory recognition, with several chitosan‐based antibacterial dressings gaining clearance through the Food and Drug Administration's 510(k) pathway.

Investigating capabilities of intermediaries in short food supply chains: a resource-based view

Agricultural and Food Economics
Short food supply chains (SFSCs) have been presented as a sustainable alternative to unsustainable conventional food supply chains (CFSCs). Here, intermediate SFSCs are most capable of expanding their scale and success.

Self‐Sintering Ionogel Binder for Flexible, Recyclable, and Healable Printed Giant Magnetoresistive Sensors

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Electronic waste has emerged as a major environmental challenge, driven by the massive consumption and a limited lifetime of modern electronic devices, stimulating the development of sustainable electronics. Here, an all‐biomaterial gelatin‐choline‐citric acid ([Ch][CA]) ionogel is developed as an active binder to realize self‐sintered ...

Transforming Agroindustry in Indonesia: Emerging Digital Technologies for Reducing Food Loss(Chinese and English versions)

Liang you shipin ke-ji
Indonesia’s agroindustry is an economic pillar but is hampered by high food loss and waste (FLW) caused by inefficient logistics, inadequate cold chain infrastructure, and fragmented supply chains. FLW leads to economic losses of 4%~5% of Indonesian GDP,
