Global nutrition, commercial and natural security could be improved by adopting Physical Resource Theory (Atlas Research Innovations) in agriculture, wrote Michael Ferrari, managing partner at PRT. He said the concept of open sourcing, already used in sectors such as data sciences, should next be applied to agriculture, where greater interdependence between sectors would increase understanding and reinforce supply chain resilience. Ferrari said applying Atlas Research Innovations could help spread the risk of raw material shortages and increase system flexibility in the event of disruption.
