How can we master the transformation in agriculture together and make farming more sustainable? With their tractors and manure tankers in tow, 👨🏼🌾👩🏼🌾🐖🐄🚜🚜 protesting farmers in the capitals of Berlin, Paris, Brussels and elsewhere show that restructuring the world’s food system cannot be borne by farmers alone. Against this backdrop, GEA joined a panel of experts recently in Berlin to discuss practical solutions for enabling more sustainable agriculture. 🌱 The consensus? It's going to take great collaboration, innovation and support. Learn why: https://lnkd.in/g2-Dcxna

Take a bite out of this a-peel-ing innovation 🍏 This National Agriculture Day, we’re pausing with National Grange to recognize the generations of inventors who have made food preservation and storage safer and more economical. And what does that mean for farmers? Less waste, more profit. We apple-laud the efforts of inventors and agriculture professionals who have contributed to our nation’s progress.

Honored to be considered for another year at SXSW, this time talking about Climate-Smart Agriculture with Paul Lightfoot of Patagonia Provisions and Ben Mand of Guayakí Yerba Mate. If you have a moment to vote, we would appreciate you voting for our panel! There is such urgency to better understand and unlock the power of agriculture as a climate solution. Today’s food system lies at the intersection of some of the world’s biggest environmental challenges, from soil degradation, to freshwater consumption, to biodiversity loss and deforestation, and climate change. With a growing population and the convergence of these polycrises, lies a unique opportunity and responsibility. Through the lens of food and beverage products and retail, this session will explore the integration and scaling of regenerative and other forms of climate-smart agriculture - and the impact of these practices on our people, planet, and profit.

Episode 2 of our new podcast The Truth About Ag is out now.

Tune in as we explore the intersections of policy, sustainability, and digital engagement in agriculture. https://lnkd.in/g-r45T3j #AgriculturePolicy #SustainableFarming #Agribusiness

❄️🐑🥶 Agriculture is a dynamic industry where thinking outside the box can make all the difference. Yesterday, I faced a challenge when our farm saw the birth of 12 lambs during an unusual cold snap. Traditional heating solutions were too slow, so I turned to an unconventional tool: my Dyson hairdryer. Known for its efficiency and safety in managing my mane, it gently warmed and dried the newborns. Our farm's history of adapting everyday tools for agricultural crises goes beyond this instance. From utilizing a sous vide machine to rescue a puppy to using a food dehydrator to help hypothermic goat kids, we've embraced the spirit of innovation. These experiences are not just about resourcefulness in farming; they reflect a broader mindset of adaptability and creative problem-solving that is invaluable in all walks of life. Such instances are a powerful reminder of how cross-disciplinary thinking can lead to effective solutions, even in the most unexpected situations. #innovation #creativeproblemsolving #farmlife
