Food system > Models / planning

The word model can be used
  • as a noun, to mean something that demonstrates, predicts, or describes (e.g. supply chains, soil function, etc.)
    • In this context, it can be related to planning, if the model is used to identify possibilities and set goals.
    • It can be small and specific, or wide in scope.
    • A model or plan "can carry varying levels of political clout" (A Guide to Local Food System Planning for Scott County MN).
  • as an adjective, to mean "exemplary," or "experimental," as in a "model" farm
