• Rooting for a farming future

  How can we keep growing the food we need while getting the planet back in balance? That’s a question many of us are asking when we hear about nutrient runoff into fragile freshwater and marine ecosystems and the climate impact of greenhouse gas emissions from farmers’ fields.In agricultural Denmark, the farmers have certainly been feeling the heat of public opinion over such issues. In this episode of foodpod denmark, we talk to some of the leading scientists and technology providers who are working on the solutions. Read more and see the pictures on the episode page

• Nerdy about nutrition

  It’s not hard to find people with opinions on food. Most of us have them – whether they’re about what makes a healthy diet or a more sustainable planet or just what tastes amazingly great.But, if you follow the news about what’s good or bad about food, it’s quite understandable if you end up confused. The amount of information – and misinformation – out there is mind-boggling.In this episode of Foodpod, we meet three people with a passion for separating facts from fiction and developing new knowledge that can lead to better food products in the future.They all have three things in common – an interest in healthy and sustainable nutrition, a desire to make a difference and a Master’s degree in Molecular Nutrition and Food Technology from Aarhus University. Are you interested in a career in food technology, nutrition and health? The Master’s degree programme in Molecular Nutrition and Food Technology will introduce you to:Food raw materials and the impact of genetics and primary productionModern processing methods and their influence on food productsFood components, functionality and propertiesOpportunities to improve health through foodGraduates are in demand Read more about the programme here.

• The insects return

  Insects are an important part of the daily diet for millions of people. Except in the West, that is, where hundreds of years ago, they disappeared from the daily menu. Why that happened, we can only guess. But many agree that it’s time to get them back on the table. Because, as a sustainable source of protein, insects are hard to beat. Some even say they are the new superfood we can’t afford to ignore. In Denmark, a small team of entrepreneurs are doing what they can to make it happen. On the site of a former poultry farm, they have built ENORM Biofactory, where the vision is to produce tonnes of black soldier fly larvae every day. To learn more, visit us at foodpod.dk.

• Farming and the city

  Have you heard how many people are moving to the cities these days? Does that make you wonder about who’s going to grow the food? In Denmark, a community of like-minded people have come together to help secure the global food supply for generations to come. Together, they have formed Growstack – an open source, foodtech project that is all about bringing farming to the cities. The Growstack team tells their visionary and innovative story in this episode of Foodpod Denmark.

• Day of the plants

  Denmark has a strong international reputation for the quality of its meat and dairy products, and the technology that goes into producing it. But did you know that Denmark is also becoming a leader in plant-based foods? Many people – young millennials in particular – are now choosing to eat plant-based meals at least once a week. Concerns about the environment, health and how to feed the world’s booming population are all part of the explanation. We talk with two experts – Rune-Christoffer Dragsdahl from the Danish Vegetarian Society and Henrik Lund from Natural' Foods – about the plant-based trend and how Danish innovation is making a global impact.
