چکیده مقاله
Food loss and waste remain critical challenges worldwide, particularly in emerging economies where fragmented supply chains and weak institutional trust amplify inefficiencies This study introduces a patent oriented conceptual framework for a digital B2B agricultural marketplace designed to reduce post harvest losses, improve farmer resilience, and foster circular agriculture in Iran The framework integrates smart supply demand matching, escrow secured payments, dispute resolution mechanisms, IoT enabled logistics monitoring, and blockchain based traceability A simulation scenario applied to Fars Province demonstrated that the platform achieved 88% matching accuracy, 95% dispute free acceptance, a two day settlement time, and 100% payment success Economically, the system could prevent 20,000 60,000 tons of waste annually and recover USD 138 460 million in value while increasing average farmer income by 17% These findings highlight the transformative potential of localized digital marketplaces in strengthening institutional trust, enhancing transparency, and aligning agricultural supply chains with the principles of sustainable and circular development This study provides a novel framework that can guide policymakers and practitioners in designing context specific digital solutions for food waste reduction in emerging markets
