摘要
The primary objective of this systematic review was to map the existing literature about Fairtrade (FT) and staple foods; then, to investigate the role of staple foods in the FT movement. The search strategy was designed to retrieve publications on the intersection of FT and staple foods. The research protocol included keywords searching across four databases, screening, and comparative analysis. From 283 documents retrieved, 49 were deemed relevant to reflect the role of staple foods in the FT movement. The review confirms the scarcity of publications, and the need for broader understanding of the rationale of the FT system in selecting their product.
