Feeding the Future: Breaking New Ground

Every year there are more mouths to feed on planet earth. Can we grow enough of everything needed to feed the burgeoning population? This problem can be tackled in so many ways, and scientists are exploring all of them.

You’ll hear about “new” foods, vertical farming, fattening yields and even the idea that something called synthetic biology could revolutionise where our food comes from. Come along to a feast of knowledge and feed your brain.
