Through the lens of science and technology studies and agrarian political economy, Duncan investigates how algorithmic decision-support tools in agriculture lead to specific environmental management outcomes and analyzes their impact on the Canadian agri-food sector. Her research connects trends in digitalization of agriculture with ongoing issues such as consolidation, financialization, and climate change. Ultimately, Duncan aims to produce knowledge that advances the resiliency and sustainability of agri-food systems. She is a recipient of the D.F.
