Mathematical Formulation of ND-BSI

Master ND-BSI
ND-BSI = (w₁·S_canopy + w₂·M_rhizo − w₃·L_stress − w₄·D_pathogen) ÷ (…+…+…+… + ε)

Macro-Canopy S_canopy
NDVI × (1 + LSWI)
photosynthesis × tissue hydration
Rhizo M_rhizo

SOC + β-glucosidase turnover
Livestock L_stress
½·(THI−60)/40 + ½·log₁₀(SCC)/6
THI = 0.8·T + (RH/100)·(T−14.3) + 46.4
Pathogen D_pathogen

Envoy Geo-Sharding Gateway Mesh

Envoy fronts every regional cluster. Ring-hash on X-Entity-ID keeps all telemetry from one parcel / herd pinned to a single broker → warm feature caches, deterministic joins, sub-ms neighbor lookups.
