Fantastic to be part of this panel on challenges and opportunities for sustainable agriculture. I do wonder if we are putting the cart before the horse. With many companies scrambling to service the demand for carbon removal, and the data required to validate this, there still doesn’t appear to be much thought as to how family farms can economically achieve this on top of the day job of food production, particularly when many farms have some very basic needs to fulfill first off to make the businesses more efficient - like improved working facilities, better infrastructure such as roads, grid connections and phone signal, and ability to deal with volatile weather. What technology will farmers need to service a carbon credit market, how much will it cost, what does everybody want to measure, will it really make a difference, how can they get a fair price without being exploited, have they got time? So many questions.

In a recent interview with FeedNavigator, our CEO Bastiaan van Tilburg talked about the growing demand for alternative sources of omega-3s, and how our commitment to novel ingredients puts us in the driving seat for creating positive change. "We are witnessing a significant shift in the aquaculture value chain, with it transitioning from a sector with a short-term operational focus to one with a long-term vision and strategic contracts," he said. "This change paves the way for sustainable growth and collaboration, positioning Skretting as a key facilitator in scaling up novel ingredients, driving innovation, and fostering partnerships that deliver value across the entire industry."
