摘要

在棕榈油等商品供应链的可持续性治理中,私人行为体是必不可少的合作伙伴。然而,它们对促进可持续性的实际贡献也受到质疑。本文通过比较获得可持续棕榈油圆桌会议(RSPO)标准认证的供应链参与者和未获得认证的供应链参与者,评估了私营参与者在泰国棕榈油供应链治理中的作用。这种比较包括投入物的供应和生产、收集和销售、加工和储存以及分配。基于(全球)价值链的概念,我们在比较中考察了以下治理维度:合同和协议的管理、信任在交易中的作用、各种行动者的相对权力,以及对小农进入市场的控制。主要数据收集于泰国南部的素叻他尼省和甲米省。我们发现,rspo认证的棕榈油链更短,更透明,农民获得的价格高于非rspo认证的链。

Governing sustainability in the Thai palm oil-supply chain: the role of private actors
Abstract Private actors are essential partners in the sustainability governance of commodity-supply chains such as palm oil. However, their actual contribution to promoting sustainability is also contested. This article assesses the role of private actors in the governance of the palm oil-supply chain in Thailand by comparing supply-chain actors that are certified with the Roundtable on Sustainable Palm Oil (RSPO) standards and non-certified supply-chain actors. The comparison entails input supply and production, collection and sales, processing and storage, and distribution. Building on the concept of (global) value chains, we examine the following governance dimensions in our comparison: the management of contracts and agreements, the role of trust in transactions, the relative power of various actors, and the control over smallholder farmers’ access to the market. Primary data were collected in the Surat Thani and Krabi Provinces in southern Thailand. We found that the RSPO-certified palm-oil chain was shorter, more transparent, and that farmers received higher prices than the non-RSPO-certified chains.

期刊介绍: Sustainability: Science, Practice and Policy is a refereed, open-access journal which recognizes that climate change and other socio-environmental challenges require significant transformation of existing systems of consumption and production. Complex and diverse arrays of societal factors and institutions will in coming decades need to reconfigure agro-food systems, implement renewable energy sources, and reinvent housing, modes of mobility, and lifestyles for the current century and beyond. These innovations will need to be formulated in ways that enhance global equity, reduce unequal access to resources, and enable all people on the planet to lead flourishing lives within biophysical constraints. The journal seeks to advance scientific and political perspectives and to cultivate transdisciplinary discussions involving researchers, policy makers, civic entrepreneurs, and others. The ultimate objective is to encourage the design and deployment of both local experiments and system innovations that contribute to a more sustainable future by empowering individuals and organizations and facilitating processes of social learning.
