There is a solution, and it’s to move away from the current model.
We’ve seen that smaller, more distributed, and less confined operations have been much less susceptible to this strain, and have had much less impact on the supply chain when they do get hit. They are less efficient when everything is going well, but if you account for outbreaks they end up being cheaper.
It’s a simple solution, but one that would require that a bunch of multinational agri-businesses to abandon the infrastructure they’ve built up to serve the existing model, so they’re going to fight the sensible choice, and kick the cost on to the consumers.
