That takes incredible, careful management to achieve.If a banana ripens too early in the process, it releases ethylene gas, which triggers ripening in other bananas. That’s a huge pile of wasted bananas.What some scientists in Norwich, UK, are doing is editing the genome of the bananas – modifying specific letters in their DNA – so that they produce far less ethylene.

Around 350,000 hectares of agricultural land, above all in Latin America, are dedicated to the cultivation of soybeans to feed Austria's livestock while one quarter of the local population starves.

Enough food is produced today to feed everyone on the planet, but hunger is on the rise in some parts of the world, and some 821 million people are considered to be “chronically undernourished”.


Farmers must come before Profit! Agriculture is facing an unprecedented challenge – here are five things we need to change.The scale of the challenge is epic.

Every day in Vienna the amount of unsold bread sent back to be disposed of is enough to supply Austria's second-largest city, Graz. No global system carries a larger social, economic, and environmental impact around the world than our food.


In some parts of the world, this could translate into real supply chains.
