L’agroalimentare in Campania nella cooperazione mediterranea
No full textLo scenario competitivo di riferimento per l’agricoltura campana deve tener conto delle crescenti istanze di sostenibilità ambientale, economica, territoriale e sociale, dell’evoluzione delle politiche dell’Unione europea e delle politiche di settore. Nella sfida competitiva acquisiscono, inoltre, una crescente importanza gli accordi multilaterali (WTO) e le forme di integrazione regionali, tra le quali rileva l’area di libero scambio con i Paesi terzi mediterranei.
Tale contributo, partendo dall’analisi delle fonti bibliografiche per la comprensione degli effetti dell’area di libero scambio Euro-mediterranea sulle produzioni agroalimentari, offre una disamina del trade tra Campania e Paesi terzi mediterranei avvalendosi di indicatori di RCA (Revelead Comparative Advantage) che evidenziano le produzioni per le quali la Campania vanta un vantaggio competitivo rispetto alle altre regioni italiane nel commercio agroalimentare. I risultati della verifica empirica, mostrano una crescente importanza dello sviluppo del trade nel comparto agroalimentare tra Campania e Paesi terzi mediterranei e la rilevanza strategica che acquisiscono gli elementi di competitività “no price” delle produzioni campane nei Paesi terzi mediterranei
Gli investimenti diretti esteri nell'UE allargata: evoluzione nel settore agroalimentare
No full textSustainable consumption: How does social media affect food choices?
No full textSocial networks both negatively and positively affect a consumer's behaviour and awareness of sustainable consumption. This research aims to interpret the multifaceted relationship between social media information and sustainable consumption in terms of food choices, environmental awareness, and consumer information, which is the novel contribution of this study. A survey of 162 individuals in Benevento, Italy, revealed how information from social media is linked to non-sustainable food behaviour. That is, variables that positively affect the probability that information is obtained through social networks are linked to behaviours that could be unsustainable from an environmental perspective. Moreover, among the new findings is the result that social media tends to create homogenised consumption, which, in many cases, is an attitude that depletes the environment. Limitations of this study and the results obtained outline future research directions
LA FILIERA DEL TONNO ROSSO MEDITERRANEO: PROBLEMATICHE E PROSPETTIVE PER IL COMPARTO IN CAMPANIA
No full textSostenibilità ambientale ed economica nella produzione di tonno rosso mediterraneo:la ricerca di una nuova soluzione di equilibrio
No full textThe economic sustainability of bluefin production
is strictly correlated to the increasing protection of environmental
sustainability of the sector, regulated at international level
through the quota instrument. The studies conducted recently,
have opened discussions on the division of the total allowable
catch (TAC) considering the opportunity of establishing a new
allocation of the (TAC) in favour of the other hemisphere, determining
the reduction of bluefin production in the Mediterranean
sea. This paper begin with a theoretical discussion
of the quota as an instrument of the policy maker and then
focuses on the microeconomic effects that a possible change in
its allocation could have on the profit of bluefin producers.
The theoretical analysis shows that the actual equilibrium between
economical and environmental sustainability could be
subjected to progressive changes, which, if not corrected with adequate
strategies, will always be to the disadvantage of the first. Dealing with this reduction, in order to remain on the market, would be possible only if they
are able to maintain the prooftability of this production through the use of appropriate strategies
aimed to increase the value of the Mediterranean bluefin. These strategies would favour the establishment
of a new equilibrium between the economical and the environmental sustainability.
In the actual scenario the latter arises strongly and it is important to evaluate the opportunity of
fi nding new tools in order to be competitive on the market.
Therefore, in this paper, after showing the peculiarities of the Mediterranean bluefin, we have
analysed the more appropriated strategies to increase the added value of this typology of territorial
bluefin production in the area where it is concentrated and where, since the ancient time, there
is a consolidated tradition in the production and consumption of this product
L’identità territoriale quale fattore di valorizzazione della filiera pesca
No full textThis work is articulated in several different steps: the description of the type of species chosen, the analysis of fish consumer demand and the added value that comes from local identity and from the culture of production and consumption. The outcome of these results form the base to define the valorization strategies to adopt. This research was conducted in the Lazio region. After a preliminary analysis of Lazio’s fish export towards EU 27, compared to exports of other Italian regions towards the EU 27, the Lazio region did not show a competitive advantage in this sector. The empirical analysis conducted on local consumers showed a local fish culture on a consumption that, together with fishing methods, local fish consumption and production characteristics, suggested a valorization strategy based on the territorial identity factors
Urban gardens in the city of Naples: An empirical analysis
No full textThe urban garden is a plot of land situated in an urban area which is used for the production of flowers, fruit, vegetables, etc..It can be considered as the expression of a more general process of changing needs. The idea within this paper is that the urban gardens are the expression of a more general evolution process of the environmental, social and economic needs In Italy the urban gardens are developing through both public and private initiatives. Starting from the concept of the urban garden and evaluating its historical and structural evolution, this paper analyses the data obtained from a survey distributed to Neapolitan farmers with the aim of highlighting the environmental, social and economic features of urban gardens. In addition, a SWOT analysis was performed in order to assess the advantages, the criticalities and opportunities of urban horticulture practices. The project was created with the aim of developing a common decision-making path for a new concept of the urban area in accordance with farmers
