OpenFarm: Agent-Based Simulation of Smallholder Farming Systems for Food Security Analysis
OpenFarm is an open-source agent-based simulation framework designed for smallholder farming systems, enabling researchers and policy analysts to model heterogeneous farm-household decision-making, technology diffusion, and endogenous market dynamics. This article explores OpenFarm's core architecture, social network modeling, stochastic shock testing, and practical workflow for food security scenario analysis at regional scale.
