Abstract：
In the last decades, several studies have highlighted the significant impacts of the food sector. Therefore, enhancing sustainability within this sector has become of paramount importance. A crucial step towards achieving this goal involves the definition and implementation of effective sustainability metric and measurements. In this regard, the adoption of multi-criteria decision analysis (MCDA) methods can be seen as one of the most suitable and promising approach to comprehensively capture the complex and broad-ranging effects of agricultural practices and food supply chains. In such context, a systematic review of the scientific literature on multi-criteria approaches and tools for measuring the sustainability of food supply chains (harvest and post-harvest stages) has been carried out, resulting in the selection and analysis of 42 articles. To delve into the selected articles, three main areas of focus have been identified. The first about MCDA methods and their features, revealing the most adopted methods for sustainability assessments of food supply chains. The second, focusing on the participatory approach, led to the definition of a stakeholder\'s engagement map, highlighting the typology of stakeholders involved, the reasons of their involvement and engagement methods. Lastly, the third focus is related to the analysis and classification of indicators adopted in each study and the sustainability dimensions to which they refer to. The results of the present review study provide a comprehensive overview of the essential aspects to be considered when developing a MCDA for sustainability assessment in the food sector, serving as a valuable resource for both scholars and practitioners.
摘要：
在过去的几十年里，几项研究强调了食品行业的重大影响。因此,加强该部门的可持续性已变得至关重要。实现这一目标的关键步骤涉及定义和实施有效的可持续性度量和测量。在这方面,采用多准则决策分析（MCDA）方法可以被视为最适合和有前途的方法之一，可以全面捕获农业实践和食品供应链的复杂和广泛影响。在这样的背景下,对衡量食品供应链可持续性(收获和收获后阶段)的多标准方法和工具的科学文献进行了系统审查，结果选择和分析了42篇文章。要深入研究选定的文章，已经确定了三个主要重点领域。第一个关于MCDA方法及其特点，揭示了食品供应链可持续性评估最常用的方法。第二个,专注于参与式方法，导致了利益相关者参与图的定义，强调相关利益相关者的类型，他们参与的原因和参与方式。最后,第三个重点是与每个研究中采用的指标的分析和分类以及它们所指的可持续性维度有关。本审查研究的结果全面概述了在制定食品行业可持续性评估MCDA时要考虑的基本方面，作为学者和实践者的宝贵资源。
