Abstract
Mycofarms is aiming to address the Wicked problem of the preservation and protection of the underground fungal network; a mycorrhizal network that plays vital roles in supporting the environment and seeking out nutrients for both thriving and struggling plant life. We addressed this Wicked Problem through the theoretical lens of Behavioural Science as we addressed our target audience of farmers; due to agriculture having a massive impact on the health of the fungal network. Our prototype is an app for smartphones that can help guide farmers to make more environmentally sustainable decisions regarding their crops and agricultural work with data driven evidence to help ensure a more cohesive relationship between the vital work farmers provide for society and the underground fungal network.
