- Understanding Consumer Interest in Organics: Production Values vs. Purchasing Behavior (2008, background): “Organic food has permeated the global food marketing chain (Raynolds, 2004), provoking intense responses from sympathetic critics that organic farming’s authenticity is being threatened as it scales up operations to meet the demands of mass marketing (Guthman, 2004; cf. Whitley, 2003).”
- Certified organic agriculture in Mexico: Market connections and certification practices in large and small producers (2005, background): “…between local social and ecological conditions) to a ‘‘market-oriented’’ agriculture (organic understood as non-chemical inputs) and leads us to question whether the large agribusinesses described here practice organic agriculture or only shift from synthetic to natural inputs (Raynolds, 2004).”
- Fighting Standards with Standards: Harmonization, Rents, and Social Accountability in Certified Agrofood Networks (2005, background): “Exogenous rents arise, then, because globalized standards-based certification is difficult and costly to implement as figure 2 indicates (see Bray et al, 2002; Ponte, 2002; Raynolds, 2004), and only those firms possessed of exceptional administrative capacity are able to obtain it.”

- The Future of Small Farms: New Directions for Services, Institutions and Intermediation (2010, background): “The result is that small farms either cannot enter or are being squeezed out of increasingly quality/ safety conscious supply chains and replaced by larger farms (Barham et al. 1995; Carter, M. et al. 1995; Carter, M. and Barham 1996; Raynolds 2004; Reardon and Timmer 2005 ).”

- The Future of Small Farms for Poverty Reduction and Growth. 2020 Discussion Paper; No.42 (2007, background): “Meeting the requirements for credence characteristics—those that cannot be proved by examining the produce, but relate to production methods such as pesticide use—can be particularly onerous for smallholders: auditing and certification costs have strong economies of scale (Raynolds 2004).”
- Environmental Certification of Forests in Mexico: The Political Ecology of a Nongovernmental Market Intervention (2006, background): “An important question arising around these transnational nongovernmental approaches to environmental regulation and development, therefore, is the degree to which they can maintain their values and achieve their goals as they engage broader networks of market actors and values, some of which are ext”
