Quantitative Methods for Agri-Food Supply Chain Resilience: A Systematic Literature Review Using Text Mining

Agri-food Supply Chains (AFSCs) face increasing disruptions from natural disasters, pandemics, and economic crises, necessitating robust quantitative analysis for resilience. This study conducts a Systematic Literature Review (SLR) using text mining and Latent Dirichlet Allocation (LDA) to identify six key research themes, including risk management, pandemic effects, simulation-based resilience, climate change, market price volatility, and optimization models. Findings reveal that multi-criteria decision-making, simulation, optimization, and machine learning are widely used, yet gaps remain in Artificial Intelligence (AI)-driven risk prediction, real-time data integration, and adaptive decision-making. This review offers insights for researchers and practitioners, emphasizing the need for AI, digital twins, and blockchain to enhance AFSC resilience.
