    Abstract: A computer-implemented method for producing a product by selection of one or more chemical precursors, the method comprising: (a) receiving, from an interface, at least two data sets comprising (i) material data related to chemical or physical properties of the one or more chemical precursors and (ii) environmental impact metrics data related to environmental impact metrics for the one or more chemical precursors necessary for manufacturing the product; (b) providing an environmental impact calculation model describing a functional relationship between the material data and the environmental impact metrics data; (c) optionally retrieving, from a database, historical environmental impact metrics data for the one or more chemical precursors, the historical environmental impact metrics data comprising historic environmental impact metrics corresponding to the one or more chemical precursors; (d) ranking the at least two data sets by a distance from predefined minimum values in multiple dimensions of the environmental impact calculation model and generating thereon based ranking results; and (e) optionally obtaining a degree of matching between the ranking results of the environmental impact calculation model and the historical environmental impact metrics data and generating thereon based matching results; and (f) selecting one or more chemical precursors out of a plurality of chemical precursors based on the ranking results and/or the matching results and adding the selected one or more chemical precursors to a production process of the product.

    Abstract: In a computing device and agricultural planning method the computing device receives data indicative of at least one practice associated with growing an agricultural crop. An overall sustainability score is determined for at least one sustainability category by determining an overall level for at least one indicator indicative of the sustainability category. A benchmark score is also determined for the at least one sustainability category by determining a benchmark level corresponding to the at least one indicator. The benchmark level is at least in part a function of the crop, the location of the field in which the crop is planted and the sustainability category. A comparison value of the overall sustainability score to the benchmark score for the at least one sustainability category is determined. An indicator of whether the comparison value is below a predetermined minimum threshold comparison value is output.
