Competition vs cooperation: An agent based model for sustainable tomatoes’ import system by Sarah Namany (17268922)

“…Based on the research findings, a competitive global market can bring economic benefits to Qatar as an importing nation, but this approach also entails substantial <u>water consumption</u> and results in significant environmental emissions. Conversely, collaboration among exporting countries demonstrates a potential 20% reduction in water usage and a 15% decrease in environmental emissions compared to the competitive scenario, offering enhanced environmental performance albeit at<u> higher economic costs</u>. …”
