The grain that returned to the sea to feed the world

A chef and a team of scien­tists are the first to have domes­ti­cated the plant Zostera marina with the inten­tion of using it for food prod­ucts because of its high nutri­tional bene­fits. The growth of this plant is asso­ci­ated with great subaqueous biodi­ver­sity and a decrease in ocean acid­i­fi­ca­tion.

Sunflowers: Spain is devel­oping new high-quality vari­eties

Heliotropic sunflowers (which follow the sun’s move­ments) are resilient to scorching summer weather. And high yielding vari­eties which are rich in oleic acid are the prime mate­rial in healthy and sustain­able vegetable oils.

Neigh­bour­hood: culti­vating a good rela­tion­ship

The coun­try­side is a space to live and to work. And thus often an arena of conflicts of how to use that space. A chal­lenge that needs to be tackled by farmers them­selves.
