  • 513: New product development – an innovation journey worth taking
    Jun 24 2024
    There are many challenges facing the food industry at the moment, and those challenges are being faced by all of us, farmers, producers, manufacturers, retailers and consumers.

    Consumers in particular, are increasingly concerned with a rising cost of living, their overall health, as well as sustainability and climate change.

    In this episode of the Food Matters Live podcast, made in partnership with Azelis UK Food and Nutrition, we look at how the food industry can address these concerns, and support consumers whilst continuing to feed a growing population.

    It is a challenge, but every challenge presents an opportunity.

    We look at the latest trends, the differences and similarities between working with a start-up and a multi-national, and learn all about the new product development journey.

  • 512: Biopesticides - is Europe playing catch-up?
    Jun 17 2024
    Looking after crops and maintaining a resilient food supply is as important now as it has ever been.

    But the challenges farmers are facing are growing, from inflation to a growing population and climate change - and all with sustainable agriculture front of mind.

    In this episode of the Food Matters Live podcast, made in partnership with CropLife Europe, we explore the role biopesticides could play in helping to ease some of the pressure on our food producers.

    Biopesticides are pesticides produced using naturally occurring substances such as plants, microbes, or biochemicals.

    They offer opportunities for protecting crops from pests and diseases and have a more favourable toxicological safety profile compared to conventional pesticides.

    In many parts of the world, they are widely used and new products can make it to market within a couple of years. In Europe, things are moving, but much more slowly.

    The question is: is Europe playing catch-up?

    This episode looks at how biopesticides are currently being used in Europe, how they might be used in future, and whether or not current regulations are in need of a shake-up.

  • 511: Culinary insights - what the plate of the future will look like
    Jun 10 2024
    What are the innovations that will shape our culinary experiences over the next decade or so?

    It is exciting to think about some of the things we may be seeing on our plates in the years ahead, but the really interesting aspect is what influences those trends.

    In this episode, recorded live at the Food Matters Live Tastes of Better event in Ascot in April 2024, we ask the experts where we might be heading, and which factors may be taking us there.

    How will an increased interest in sustainability, provenance, and cultural diversity impact our culinary experiences if the future?

    We also ask them to reflect on some trends from the past, which have stood the test of time, and which have fallen by the wayside?

    It is a journey from the past to the present and beyond, that left our live audience licking their lips.
