Abstract

Food system analysis is used to understand relations between the production, distribution, and consumption of agricultural products. Many export commodities commodities are facing “consumer concerns” and certification requirement issues. In this paper, the certification requirements and schemes of two export commodities—banana and cocoa—are discussed using food system analysis. The “inclusiveness” of the food system, in terms of living wage, is also discussed.
