This not only reduces waste but also contributes to a more sustainable and circular economy. From bioethanol to bioplastics, sweet potatoes are proving to be a key player in the zero-waste movement, showcasing how we can repurpose organic waste into something extraordinary. This creates an ecosystem where nothing is wasted, and everything is valued. Let's embrace the power of sweet potatoes and other sustainable practices to make our world a cleaner, greener place.

🚛 Ongoing Full-Scale Supply of Sustainable, Local BSFL Feed to a Free-Range Pastured Egg Farm Near Colac! 🐔 We’re excited to share that after successful trials, Bardee is now providing ongoing, full-scale supply of live Black Soldier Fly larvae (BSFL) in regular truckloads to a free-range pastured egg farm near Colac! This local, circular economy partnership replaces traditional chicken feed with a short-supply chain solution that’s good for both the planet and the hens. 🌍✨ Why Our Live BSFL Feed is a Game-Changer: 1️⃣ Sustainable & Local: Our live BSFL are produced locally, minimising transport emissions and supporting a circular economy with a shorter, more efficient supply chain. 2️⃣ Natural Behaviour Support: Live BSFL encourage natural foraging behaviour in chickens, making for healthier, happier layer hens who enjoy their feed the way nature intended. 🐛🐔 3️⃣ Low-Impact Processing: Unlike protein meal, live BSFL require minimal processing, meaning fewer resources used and more of the larvae’s natural nutrients retained. Every truckload of live BSFL helps reduce food waste, promotes healthier hens, and contributes to a sustainable, local food system. Here’s to more natural feed, happy chooks, and a greener planet! 💚

Check out the Path Advisory Tool https://bit.ly/3Y0CtAx In the coming weeks we will highlight each of the 6 Focus Area Topics ❇️ Circular food systems A shift from our current linear model (make, use, dispose) to a circular food system is required. This implies reuse of resources, reduction and (re)-utilisation of side- and waste-streams to prevent food loss and waste, and to allow nutrient recycling and reduction in greenhouse gas emissions, as well as water and land use. This includes circular business models for sustainable Food Systems, and system thinking as a guide for the assessment of strengths and challenges of circularity processes. 🌐Applications for the Master in Food Systems are open : https://bit.ly/3XAqrhf #MFSCommunity #EITCommunity #Circularity

📆 Today we celebrate #EnvironmentDay by recognizing the positive impact of greenhouses on agricultural sustainability. 🌱🏠 Did you know that 95% of the plastic used in them is recyclable and recycled? 🤔 💧 Additionally, their impact on water footprint is significant, reducing it almost 20 times compared to traditional farming methods. This not only conserves a vital resource but also promotes more efficient water management. 🌱 With reduced pesticide use, greenhouses not only protect our crops but also promote the health of the ecosystem. 👨👨👧👧 Their contribution goes beyond the environment. In places like Almería, Spain, 32,000 hectares of greenhouses support 15,000 families, demonstrating the social sustainability that this industry can provide. 💚 Moreover, we can't overlook the commitment to recycling! Greenhouses recycle 100% of the steel used in their structures, showcasing a comprehensive approach to sustainability. From Gonvarri AgroTech let's celebrate and support initiatives like greenhouses that not only feed the world but also protect it. Together, we can cultivate a greener and more prosperous future for generations to come. 🌎 #AgroIndustry #Sustainable
