摘要

牛肉价值链的转型变革对于实现各项联合国可持续发展目标至关重要,但也面临着重大挑战。牛肉包装商和零售商表现出的利他主义偏好可能会在转变牛肉价值链以提高其可持续性方面发挥积极作用。我们的论文探讨了利他偏好能否改变传统的市场动态,从而改善牛肉产业的环境和经济成果。我们采用博弈论框架来研究牛肉价值链参与者的战略行为。我们将博弈论模型应用于美国牛肉价值链。结果表明,牛肉包装商和零售商联盟的利他主义偏好可以提高价值链的效率和可持续性。随着联盟利他主义水平的提高,牧场主会更有动力加大减排力度,从而为他们带来更高的利润。降低减排成本和提高碳信用额的价格也为牧场主采用可持续技术和耕作方式提供了积极的激励,从而提高了价值链的可持续性。这些发现对牛肉价值链的利益相关者具有重要意义,即如何利用参与者的利他主义偏好来提高价值链的可持续性和效率。

Towards sustainable beef: The role of altruistic preference in the value chain transformation

Transformative changes in the beef value chain are crucial for achieving various United Nations Sustainable Development Goals but face major challenges. Altruistic preferences exhibited by beef packers and retailers might play a positive role in transforming the beef value chain to improve its sustainability. Our paper examines whether altruistic preference can alter traditional market dynamics, resulting in improved environmental and economic outcomes within the beef industry. We employ a game-theoretical framework to investigate the strategic behaviors of the beef value chain participants. We apply the game theory model to the United States beef value chain. Our results show that altruistic preference from the beef packer and retailer alliance can improve the value chain’s efficiency and sustainability. As the alliance’s level of altruism rises, ranchers become more motivated to ramp up their emissions reduction efforts, resulting in higher profits for them. Reducing emissions reduction cost and increasing the price of carbon credits also provide positive incentives for ranchers to adopt sustainable technologies and farming practices to improve the sustainability of the value chain. These findings hold significant implications for beef value chain stakeholders on how altruistic preference from participants can be leveraged to improve value chain sustainability and efficiency.

期刊介绍: Food Policy is a multidisciplinary journal publishing original research and novel evidence on issues in the formulation, implementation, and evaluation of policies for the food sector in developing, transition, and advanced economies. Our main focus is on the economic and social aspect of food policy, and we prioritize empirical studies informing international food policy debates. Provided that articles make a clear and explicit contribution to food policy debates of international interest, we consider papers from any of the social sciences. Papers from other disciplines (e.g., law) will be considered only if they provide a key policy contribution, and are written in a style which is accessible to a social science readership.
