How do we make our food systems fit for the future? We want to initiate and promote new thought processes in the agriculture and food industry and find solutions for current social expectations.
The goal is to network the players along the value chains, to process and exchange knowledge and innovations, to provide technical support for the development of legal frameworks and standards and to provide inspiration for research and development. The Committee for New Feed & Food pursues an interdisciplinary approach. Information is selected, processed and published in a dynamic market.
