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.

### Packaging
|
|
|
|
|
|
Some products use reusable packaging, other ones disposable which requires recycling or composting. Even reusable packaging at some point needs to get recycled or composted. Food growers, processors and distributors keep track on packaging, not only among themselves but also among consumers.
|
|
|
* producers, processors and distributors use wooden crates to transport products in bulk
|
|
|
* some processors use glass bottles and jars which consumers return and sometimes break
|
|
|
* distributors use paper bags which consumers burn and compost themselves
|
|
|
* processors and distributors use stainless steels containers to transport products in bulk, consumers bring their own different kinds of containers to pick up small quantities from distributors. Those stainless steel containers need to get washed and require keeping track of how many stay clean, how many occupied and how many needs to get washed.
