564: From rocket stoves to regenerative farming: Real stories of sustainability

What does meaningful progress towards sustainability in the food industry actually look like?

Is it setting ambitious targets and regular transparent reporting? Possibly.

But the key thing is how those targets affect things on the ground, the tangible benefits we see as a result.

In this episode of the Food Matters Live podcast, made in partnership with AAK, we look at targeted initiatives that are creating impact at scale, while also addressing some of the sector’s most complex challenges.

We learn about efforts to empower women in West Africa (and find out all about rocket stoves), how data is being used to drive regenerative agricultural practices in Swedish Rapeseed, and we tackle the tough questions around palm oil.

AAK are a lead partner for the Food Matters Live events in Rotterdam and Ascot.
