A Boomer’s Guide
to Climate Action
It was on our generation's watch that climate change became a planetary emergency—and it's on us to help figure out what to do about it now. The industrial Food and Agriculture system contributes approximately 1/3rd of global emissions, and harms not just soil and water, but also our personal health.
To empower farmers to shift into regenerative organic practices requires an adaptation of the entire farm to table supply chain, up to and including the consumer. This requires the exchange of market intelligence connecting all market participants.
Food with Thought is using AI technology to assist small to medium sized farmers, food processors, logistics providers, and retailers with access to markets and rebuild local / regional networks

Connecting Regenerative Farmers with Markets
Farm Assessments
Each farm has to deal with unique challenges based on the condition of its soil, local climate, access to water, and socioeconomic circumstances. We support TSPs (technical service providers) with dedicated AI technology to develop optimized types of crops, native seeds, rotations, and access to markets. TSPs will also advise on best available selection of fertilizers, pest control, selection of tools.
Market Research
Each farming community has unique resources and available infrastructure to support types of crops, and access to markets. We can provide a road map to access and utilize a farm to table supply chain for differentiated crops. We also maintain a library of resources that are available at Federal, State, and Local levels, and support applications for grants, loans, and access to technical specialists.
Operational Design
Regenerative farmers will need to change and adapt their crops to optimize soil health and water management within their bioregion. This in turn requires aggregators, processors, logistics, and brokerage to connect the farmer with markets. We will provide a gap analysis that defines opportunities for innovations and business formation.
