摘要

In this paper, we establish a model to create a sustainability score to evaluate the sustainability of a food system. Sustain score is based on 8 sub indicators and a large amount of data processing and function fitting. We use these data to predict the continuous score after the optimization scheme. Then, through the model test, we get a significant increase in persistence - scores in different countries. In addition, we have established two models of exporting and importing countries in order to rearrange the proportion of crops. For each model, we tested developed and developing countries respectively. Because each country's situation is different, the cost of changing the model is also different. One country has an impact on its distribution efficiency, while the other country will reduce its profits in order to achieve the ideal distribution model. Finally, after the optimization scheme is completed, analytic hierarchy process (APH) is used to evaluate the food system again.
