In the last years the economic and environmental sustainability of modern agriculture has been often challenged.

Abstract

In the last years the economic and environmental sustainability of modern agriculture has been often challenged. It is affected more and more also by the several market crisis and the productive processes with a significant environmental burden. The organic agriculture might be a suitable solution to change course on these concerns. In the last few years its market has continued to grow also thanks to the introduction of new marketing strategies very often linked to the concept of short supply chain. The aim of this note is the analysis of the main characteristics of the organic food market, focusing on the factors that can lead to the enhancement of this agricultural sector. For this purpose the constraints and the potentials for the " short supply chain" concept have been highlighted, taking into account the effects generated from its widespread application in the distribution phase of the biological food.
