Food is a part of everyday life but not enough of us pay close attention to the complex and inequitable supply chain that brings it to our tables. The current COVID-19 crisis and the ongoing climate crisis have forced a renewed focus on the food supply chain and access to essential goods. Increasingly, this access is often neither fair nor sustainable.
In this panel discussion, Cornell SC Johnson College of Business professor Miguel Gomez will be joined by Paul Sellew, founder and CEO of hydroponic grower Little Leaf Farms, and Julie Suarez, Associate Dean for Land-Grant Affairs at Cornell’s College of Agriculture and Life Sciences (CALS). Their combined expertise in supply chain management and policies within the food agriculture industry will elevate our understanding of how vital goods reach consumers, as well as how system and policy choices can improve outcomes.
