### Horizontal bio-regional coordination
|
|
|
|
|
|
Food growers, processors and distributors in certain region perform survey among local population. Based on that they coordinate their production plans for next year. CSA, Food Coops and Farmer's market all participate, even though they have different way of establishing relationships with consumers. Since part of the food gets imported as well as exported, they also coordinate with other bio-regions.
