You might be able to tackle this at a much smaller scale with things like CSAs (community-supported agriculture). In a CSA, you are essentially buying a farm share and getting some amount of veggies or meat per week/month/etc.
One issue with a CSA is that I'll get odd amounts of things: not enough potatoes to get a dish for instance or an overwhelming amount of parsley, etc. It would be good if there were a feedback mechanism so that (a) I would get the food that I wanted, and in the amounts that are good for me or my family, and (b) so that the farmers knew what kinds of crops to focus on and deliver to their members.
In my experience the people who run CSAs are passionate about their farming and not on technology. If someone could provide a service like this, it might be helpful to them.
