Minimalism in Agribusiness: Efficient Supply Chains and Sustainable Practices

Minimalism in agribusiness represents a paradigm shift in the way we approach farming and food production. Its emergence can be traced back to a growing global awareness of the ecological and social challenges associated with traditional agricultural practices. As consumers demand more sustainable and transparent food systems, the agribusiness sector has undergone a transformation, integrating minimalism principles to enhance supply chain efficiency and promote sustainable practices. This paper titled “Minimalism in Agribusiness: Efficient Supply Chains and Sustainable Practices” explores the impact of adopting minimalism practices, technology integration, and sustainable agriculture on supply chain efficiency and alignment with sustainable practices. By employing a mixed-methods approach, we gather data from a diverse sample of 122 agri producers and 186 intermediaries across the supply chain. Our findings reveal that minimalism practices, technology integration, and sustainable methods significantly influence supply chain efficiency. Larger agribusinesses, specific locations, and market demand also play pivotal roles. This research contributes to understanding the holistic relationship between minimalism and agribusiness, paving the way for a more sustainable and efficient future.
