A Resilient and Sustainable Food System
Panel discussion about resilience and sustainability in the Swedish Food system with international outlooks. The panel will discuss how Sweden works to make the food system more resilient and sustainable. How does the farmers and food producers work? What are the challenges? How do we work with our soil to keep it fertile in the long term? Resilience is important to cope with climate changes that increasingly puts pressure on the agricultural land. Water supply and effects on waters downstream by agriculture is of increasing importance in Sweden, and abroad. Lantmännen, an agricultural cooperative owned by 18 000 Swedish farmers, is one important driver of the development in the Swedish food system.
