Abstract
The work analyzes the Network of Food Chains (NFC) subjected to turbulence that forces to design strategies to meet the objectives of supplying humanity with affordable food, in quantity, quality, place and adequate times. The methodology raises the impacts on the NFC through its flows production and services, financing and information, according to the paradigm of Industrial Organization structure-conduct-performance. The main impacts on structure and behavior and the consequences on their functioning are described. Strength and resilience are significant strategies to follow, including the special role of the Spanish Agency for Food Safety and Nutrition (AESAN), in coordination with the European Food Safety Agency (EFSA) and other public and private institutions. The results include health and economic effects. Through the SOWT matrix, the effects of paradigm shift, risks and challenges faced are exposed. In the case of Spain, the effects of African Swine Fever, rapeseed oil scandals, mad cow disease (BSE) and COVID-19 are reported. Finally, the conclusions show the basic principles that the NFC analysis models must follow, as well as the strategies to be applied in the strengthening and resilience to diminish the impacts received.
