The development of agricultural integration and the sustainability challenges of prison food supply raise key issues in modern agribusiness. This study aims to present an economic model that analyzes the interconnections between correctional institutions’ food supply systems and producer integration. The constant demand and long-term contracts provide local producers with access to a stable market while reducing supply chain costs and environmental impact. The analysis employs the BATWOVE methodology to assess the effectiveness of sustainable public procurement strategies and innovative integration models, highlighting that deeper integration of food systems not only brings economic benefits but also fosters the long-term sustainability of agricultural producers and promotes social justice.
