Traceability Adoption Barriers in Digital Food Supply Chain to Achieve Food Security and Sustainability
通过DELPHI和模糊DEMATEL方法，识别并分析了数字食品供应链中追溯采纳的障碍及其相互关联，发现教育和培训差距、数据整合挑战等是最具影响力的障碍，并提出了一个九支柱框架来缓解这些障碍，对政府、政策制定者和农业食品行业有参考价值。
ABSTRACT The modern food supply chain (FSC) faces pressing challenges, including food fraud, safety and security issues, food waste and sustainability concerns. Simultaneously, consumers are becoming increasingly interested in understanding the origins and pathways of their food. To tackle these challenges, digitisation and traceable FSCs are vital. However, numerous obstacles hinder the widespread adoption of traceability in digital FSCs. This study identifies and explores interconnections between barriers to traceability adoption in digital FSCs through an integrated DELPHI and Fuzzy DEMATEL approach. The findings highlight that Education and Training Gaps (B13), Data Integration Challenges (B14), Data Silos (B10), Environmental Sustainability Concerns (B16) and Short‐Term Focus (B17) are among the most influential barriers, impacting several other challenges. To mitigate these barriers, the study proposes a nine‐pillar framework. The insights derived from this research can support government agencies, policymakers and agro‐food industries in advancing traceability adoption across digital FSCs.
