There are a couple articles I can link when I get home. They studied a similar phenomenon in some Brazilian cities. There are several factors involved, including food losses due to distance to consumption and the fact that smaller producers tend to grow more diverse food.

And the fact that so much food is thrown out, because it spends 75% of it's expiration date traveling between facilities. That's why fresh food from big chains starts being bad way faster than local market bough.
