Daniel Baertschi, food and agriculture sector lead at Quantis, argues the case for developing a whole-system approach to developing food supply that is less impactful. Talking with Ian Welsh, he points out some practical steps in product diversification and ingredient sourcing that can make a big difference, including thinking more strategically around shortening supply chains and leveraging existing value chain relationships. Part of the solution is thinking about traditional farming practices while using the latest technology to preserve and enhance soil health and improve yields.
