How can I prepare for the discussion?

To go more in-depth into the subject here are some FoodHack recommendations around the topic of Soil Health and Regenerative Agriculture:

📚 Does the way we grow food impact its nutrient content? Research shows it can. - Article from the Hive, Unilever Food Innovation Center. They have hosted our last event in Wageningen on Sustainable Ingredients.

📚 Fruits and vegetables are less nutritious than they used to be… - An article from National Geographic underlining the importance of soil health for ours.

🎙Only 1% of nutrition data is tracked on food labels and that means lots of opportunities for companies- A podcast episode from Investing In Regenerative Agriculture with Tina Owens, regenerative agriculture consultant and part of the Nutrient Density Alliance.
