Rice SALM within OpenAg
Build, test and deploy the Rice SALM model within the OpenAg platform to support climate-smart agricultural decision-making.
Our fellows advance a portfolio of sector-focused initiatives spanning food systems, consumer packaged goods and electronics, and digital technologies- designed to embed nature and climate considerations within business decision-making.
In food systems, this means rethinking how food is produced and consumed – from cocoa to climate-smart crops – working with partners to unlock more resilient, nature-positive approaches across the value chain.

Build, test and deploy the Rice SALM model within the OpenAg platform to support climate-smart agricultural decision-making.

Establish the ANCA Commercial Opportunities Working Group Virtual Workspace and Investment-Ready Project Dashboard to support collaboration and pipeline development for nature-positive investments.

Continue enriching the Shifting Hardiness Zones prototype with additional datasets and expanded geographic coverage for existing coffee zones. Explore partnerships to scale the model to an additional climate-vulnerable crop, beginning with cacao.
