社区支持农业(CSA)计划正在改变人们与粮食和农业的联系方式。许多研究人员考虑了CSA对经济、社会和环境关系的变革潜力。它们说明了参与者是如何融入更广泛的政治经济变革的。然而，CSA对个人股东的变革性影响没有得到同样的关注--特别是在它们与食品和健康的关系方面。我们汇集了行为经济学、计量经济学和政治生态学的文献，以评估参与CSA对食物生活方式行为的潜在影响。通过对四个具有不同食物获取环境的群体的调查，我们比较了受访者在三个不同类别上的自我评估的食物相关行为：(1)农产品与加工食品的消费，(2)外出食品的消费，以及(3)食物获取和对营养的兴趣。通过记录集团之间的差异，我们确认股东在与上述类别相关的许多指标以及对健康的总体评估方面与其他集团显示出显著的绝对差异。这些差异在方向上与公共卫生官员认定的与有益健康结果相关的行为相对应。我们的结论是，CSA交换关系所描绘的食物环境如何为参与者提供独特的反身性机会，以发展与食物相关的各种技能和行为。
Community supported agriculture (CSA) programs are transforming the way people relate to food and agriculture. Many researchers have considered the transformative potential of CSAs on economic, social, and environmental relations. They illustrate how participants are embedded in broader political economic transformations. The same focus, however, has not been given to CSAs’ transformative impact on individual shareholders—especially in terms of their relationship to food and health. We draw together literatures from behavioral economics, econometrics, and political ecology to evaluate the potential impacts of CSA participation on food lifestyle behaviors. Using primary data drawn from a survey of four groups with distinct food acquisition environments, we compare respondents’ self-assessed food-related behaviors along three different categories: (1) produce versus processed food consumption, (2) food away from home consumption, and (3) food acquisition and interest in nutrition. By documenting between-group differences, we confirm that shareholders display significant absolute differences to other groups along numerous indicators related to the above-stated categories and in general assessments of health. These differences correspond directionally to behaviors public health officials identify as correlated to beneficial health outcomes. We conclude by theorizing how the food environments delineated by a CSA exchange relationship provide unique reflexive opportunities for participants to develop diverse food-related skills and behaviors.
