L’usage des TIC dans pratiques logistiques des Circuits Courts Alimentaires de proximité. Proposition d’une typologie
The use of ICT in the logistical practices of short local food circuits. Proposal of a typology

Summary/Abstract: If the impact of ICTs has been extensively studied in agricultural production techniques, the different types of ICT uses in the Nearby Food Short Circuits (NFSCs) remain little studied to date. However, following the example of "long" logistics chains, many hopes are pinned on the capacity of ICTs to improve the often sub-optimal logistics organizations of NFSCs. Shaped with regard to the logistical needs of product distribution, transport and logistics organizations (LTOs) are proving to be diverse, which invites the hypothesis of a diversity of modalities for the inclusion of ICT in the LTOs of NFSCs. The diversity of logistic needs explained in the light of the economics of conventions is the basis of a proposed typology of NFSCs, and the contributions of the economics of services makes it possible to specify for each type the ICTs mobilized. A study conducted in the Hauts-de-France region in 2018 corroborates this hypothesis and illustrates the proposed typology.
