This study aims to systematically review the attributes of Agri-food Supply Chain Performance Evaluation Methodologies (ASCPEMs). To accomplish this, we employed a systematic literature review methodology, focusing on peer-reviewed journal articles published between 2007 and June 2023. By examining 123 papers, we observed a growing number of publications on ASCPEMs. A similarity analysis enabled the identification of common characteristics among the methods studied, including the agrifood supply chain processes analyzed, evaluation objectives, aspects assessed, application cases, analysis methods, information sources, and data collection techniques. These characteristics outline prevailing trends in food supply performance. The findings elaborate on these trends for each characteristic, supported by reference examples. This review, the first of its kind to characterize ASCPEMs, also identifies future research directions and emerging gaps in information management technology. Among the findings, it was noted that information and Industry 4.0 technologies are sparingly utilized, and data collection methods are predominantly manual, resulting in delays in performance analysi © 2026 Operations and Supply Chain Management Forum.
