Building a digital twin of the global food system
So organisations and decision-makers have the tools to make reliable decisions fast.
Empowering decision-makers with fast, reliable real-time data across three critical domains!
Location:
regions with food shortages or surpluses
We connect food shortages in regions impacted by climate change to the export capacity of countries with excess food production.
Climate:
weather events and water availability
We analyse how climate events and water availability affect crop production, food supply and, ultimately, food security.
Time:
past, present and future climate
We provide a seamless connection between historic weather data, now-casting, forecasting and future projections.
Decision-makers urgently require practical support for informed decisions, yet they often encounter overly theoretical scientific analyses and incomplete or untimely data.
-
Decision-makers have to manage more uncertainty
Past assumptions that rainfall patterns, river flows, water use, or food trade will resemble historical conditions are no longer valid. Recurring and continuous evaluation, of the most up-to-date data, can help distinguish trends from noise.
-
Decision-makers have to act faster than before
As extreme events occur more frequently and their impacts spread wider, timely insight on current stocks and expected production is crucial to assess the availability of buffers and anticipate tipping points.
-
Decision-makers have to adapt plans continuously
Adaptive planning is vital. Waiting for stability in a changing world wastes time and leads to reactive, counterproductive decisions. Continuous monitoring, using data to track current risks and link them to long-term challenges, is the key.
