Evolution And Trends Of Scientific Research On Short Food Supply Chains: International Bibliometric Analysis

Resumen

Short Food Supply Chains (SFSCs) are forms of agrifood product circulation that have the aim of bringing together producers and consumers, promoting fair trade, and giving access to local foods. The study of SFSCs is a developing area of knowledge. The objective of the research was to perform a bibliometric analysis of the evolution and the current state of international scientific research on SFSCs and to identify trends and opportunities for research, specifically in Latin America. For this purpose, we carried a bibliometric analysis out, through the databases Dimensions and Redalyc, during the period of 2000 to 2021 and processed in the VOSviewer software. Results show a total of 253 documents and it was determined that Europe represents 67% of the research on SFSCs; however, a growing production of studies can be seen in North America and Latin America, primarily in case studies, which represent 25%. The areas of knowledge where there are more studies are the social sciences, administration and economy. The conclusion is that COVID-19, food security and agrifood policies are areas of opportunity for research linked to Short Food Supply Chains in Latin America.
