Disruption Decade: Looming Issue of World Food Shortages
In the latest episode of the Disruption Decade podcast, host Paul Barron and founder of Cover Crop Coaching and author of “The Future-Proof Farm,” Steve Groff, discuss the next decade’s looming issue around world food shortages.
Traditionally farmers have not been paid for nutrient density, but rather for quantity and crop yields. As we experience a new wave of consumer eating habits, trends and desires for nutritionally dense foods, the agriculture industry must find ways to fulfill these ever changing demands. Groff’s book, The Future-Proof Farm, outlines the fundamental shift in the way we need to grow food in order to meet these new consumer expectations.
