Would you bar a contract for the productivity of a tree for a given period of time, with a clause dictating how excess produce is to be disposed of?

- em-bee 3mo agoyes, there should be no excess that needs to be disposed. if you produce excess you should reduce production.
- jandrewrogers 3mo agoA state of "excess production" can only be determined long after production parameters have already been committed to. Yields, logistics costs, and market capacity aren't knowable ahead of time.
- em-bee 3mo agosure, but the market consequence to overproduction is that the price goes down. if you are not allowed to destroy products just to keep the price up then you will self correct in time.
- snypher 3mo agoSo should they ask the trees to fruit less, or cut them down knowing they can't get them back online for 10 years?
- em-bee 3mo agothey should sell the fruits. and if can't sell all the fruit then yes, eventually they will need to reduce production.
- maxerickson 3mo agoNotably, US healthcare is run with this mindset. Perfect planning for exactly the capacity that we need. Works "great".
- em-bee 3mo agosorry, i wasn't clear. i am specifically talking about excess that needs to be destroyed in order to keep prices up. meaning, artificially reducing the supply by creating waste.
