• This title provides the reader with an understanding of the concept of the circular economy, in relation to food supply chains. The current food supply chain system, based upon the linear supply chain model, is unquestionably unsustainable: make, use, dispose. The circular supply chain model, on the other hand, keeps resources in use for as long as possible, while regenerating products/materials at the end of their service life. In short: reduce, reuse, recycle. This book puts forwards the circular economy as an alternative. The circular economy minimises material, energy and environmental damage without restricting economic growth and social and technological progress. It involves transition to renewable energy sources, and builds on economic, natural and social capital. Will appeal to academics in supply chain logistics, operation management and agricultural management.
