IEEE White Paper

- Active. The IEEE SA Transdisciplinary Framework for 5G and Future Networks Enabled Applications and Services Industry Connections (IC) white paper discusses the end-to-end agriculture ecosystem in the context of the food supply chain, rural development, and climate resiliency. A transdisciplinary framework that includes ecosystems, networks, and governance may address the end-to-end agriculture ecosystem in a sustainable and systematic manner. The food supply chain includes the natural environment and resources, food production, processing and packaging, distribution, and consumption. Rural development is discussed within the context of connectivity, cross-ecosystem touch-points, and local economic development. Climate resiliency is addressed through changes in land use and land cover (LULC).
