Feeding Tasmania: Our Food Future
With the world population estimated to reach 10 billion by 2050, there is an urgent need to address the growing demand in food production. Growers and producers face new challenges to maintain and increase productivity, while caring for our land.
How can we feed a growing population whilst maintaining and improving Tasmania’s land and water quality for future generations? How do we create resilient food systems that mitigate climate-related threats such as fire, flood and drought?
Join our experts to discover how leaders in the Tasmanian food industry are innovating to shape a future where caring for our land and waterways builds resilience in our food system.
