“Sustainability Week 2024: How do we want to eat tomorrow?” Fresh Business students at Fontys Venlo University of Applied Sciences delved into the connections between #sustainability, cutting-edge #food #technology, and #moral dilemmas related to food decisions. After Day 1, we identified six key statements: 1. Health guides our food purchases. 2. Food production must follow environmental standards. 3. Minimizing animal suffering is a moral obligation. 4. Preserving traditional meals is valuable. 5. Working conditions in the food sector impact our buying choices. 6. Fair Trade criteria hold significance in food decisions. These statements vary in importance/ for our group they follow the given order. The discussion highlighted differing priorities, revealing the challenge of aligning our ideals with our actual actions. Whether we can generalise from our group to a broader group of students and teachers will be explored in the next days. The results are input for our ongoing project „Moral Food Lab: how will we eat tomorrow?“ Luca Borcherding Sophia Gehlen Vadim Mahu Graeme Gommans Andreea Popescu Bart Wernaart Marieke van Vliet - van der Graaff #foodtransition #fontysforsociety #foodtech #foodbusiness #morality #foodinnovation

VP, Sustainability Partnerships & Strategy, Bayer Crop Science | Partner in the Transformation of Agriculture | Leader in Foreign Affairs | Supporter of Women Leaders
A couple of weeks ago, I attended the Innovation Forum's Future of Food and Beverage USA conference in Minneapolis. Here are my three takeaways... With the conference on the University of Minnesota campus, the final instruction of Norman Borlaug to "take it to the farmer" was ever-present in my mind to ensure the farmer is driving the conversation. I was grateful to see farmers not just in the room, but featured as speakers, raising their questions, and providing their invaluable perspectives. Companies set ambitious targets for 2030, which means six growing seasons for agriculture. With 2030 deadlines coming fast, the pressure is only going to intensify on upstream, and in food and beverage, upstream means the farmer. How do we drive for progress in six growing seasons without overregulating and overburdening our farmers? If we want to see meaningful progress, we must prioritize clear communication. Sometimes conversations can be stalled by the smallest things - like using different terms and phrases when discussing the same things. Eliminating those small barriers by speaking the same language can make a world of difference. Progress will only be made when various perspectives come together for honest conversations. We’ll have differences, but we can only find common ground when everyone comes to the table with a common language. #Farmers #Food #Beverage #Regenerative #SupplyChain 📸: Innovation Forum

🌱 Transforming the Global Food Landscape with Technology and Culinary Excellence 🌱 My journey in the culinary world has been deeply enriching and fulfilling throughout my career as Culinary Director . Yet, beyond the confines of high-end dining lies a broader mission that I am passionately committed to - leveraging our collective expertise in culinary arts, technology, and strategic investment to address one of the most pressing challenges of our time: global food security. In a recent enlightening discussion on the Future of Agriculture podcast, featuring visionaries like David Friedberg and Louisa Burwood-Taylor, the potential of agricultural technology (AgTech) and its profound impact on food sustainability and security were brought to light. This conversation echoes my long-term ambition to bridge the gap between culinary excellence and food advocacy, particularly in emerging nations. 💡 Key Takeaways for Our Mission: 1. Innovation at the Intersection: The fusion of AgTech and culinary expertise opens new avenues for sustainable food production. By adopting innovative agricultural technologies, we can significantly enhance yield, nutritional value, and accessibility of food, particularly in areas most vulnerable to food insecurity. 2. Data-Driven Decisions: The power of data science in understanding and optimizing food systems is unprecedented. Through strategic analysis and investment, we can identify crucial intervention points that promise the highest impact on global food security. 3. Collaboration for Change: The path to a more food-secure world requires collaboration across sectors. By partnering with global organizations, tech innovators, and food professionals, we can amplify our impact, turning visionary ideas into tangible solutions. 4. Sustainable Practices for a Healthier Planet: Emphasizing sustainable agricultural practices not only addresses food scarcity but also mitigates the environmental impact of food production. This holistic approach ensures that we are not just feeding the world today but nurturing it for generations to come. 🌍 Join Us on This Journey 🌍 This mission goes beyond culinary art; it's about harnessing our collective expertise and passion for making a meaningful difference. I invite you to join us in this ambitious endeavor. Whether you are a technology enthusiast, a culinary professional, or someone passionate about creating a sustainable future, your contribution is invaluable. Together, let's embark on this journey to transform global food systems, making food security a reality for all. Your thoughts, expertise, and collaboration could be the key to unlocking the potential of AgTech and culinary innovation in creating a food-secure world. #FoodSecurity #AgTech #CulinaryInnovation #SustainableAgriculture #GlobalImpact

Day 4: Prioritizing Moral Food Decisions through a Survey A survey was conducted to understand the varying priorities in making moral food decisions. Day 5: Concluding Insights The week concluded with profound revelations: 1. Health First: Our primary driver in making food decisions is personal health. 2. Planet Health Matters: Ecological aspects, representing the health of our planet, stand as the second most important factor in moral food decisions. 3. Varied Values: Factors such as social and global fairness, along with the value of tradition in recipes, exhibit significant variation in importance among individuals. The Moral Food Lab-Project: The outcomes of this week serve as valuable input for the Moral Food Lab-project. This information will guide a research initiative, leading individuals through a reflective process on opinions and emotions. The goal is to vividly illustrate how our society envisions eating in the future, defining common goals like personal health and a thriving planet. The research will also outline pathways, incorporating various technologies, to achieve these goals.

Defining food system transformation The term ‘food system transformation’ refers to how to change food systems. It is important to note that transformation is a radical idea. It is not a tweak , but a complete rethink of the attributes of a food system, including its purpose, rules, and power structures. It is about reshaping the so-called ‘normal’. Whether deliberately steered , or occurring autonomously, there will be will transformation winners and losers. By: Wageningen University & Research Details below;
