The Irish headquartered Yield Lab is the most active early-stage investor in sustainable agrifoodtech in Europe. Together with Nestlé, the largest global buyer of dairy products, and other leading dairy companies, are inviting all start-ups, world-wi …
Denmark, a major pork and dairy exporter, will introduce a tax on livestock carbon dioxide emissions from 2030, making it the first country to do so and hoping to inspire others to follow.
Scientists at KTH Royal Institute of Technology in Sweden have developed a groundbreaking method to extract phosphorus from Baltic Sea sediments, potentially providing a new domestic source of this critical agricultural input for Europe. The process involves a two-step extraction using microbial treatment and a metal-binding compound, achieving an 80% release and 99% recovery rate in lab tests. This innovation could reduce Europe's reliance on imported phosphate and align with EU goals for sustainable nutrient recycling, although it requires land-based facilities to prevent ecological damage.
Syngenta's X-Terra® hybrid wheat, approved in France, marks a significant advancement in European cereal genetics. By using genome-wide screening and precision genetic analysis, Syngenta has developed scalable hybrid wheat that offers improved yield stability, stress tolerance, and disease resilience, particularly against septoria. This innovation, alongside digital tools like the Cropwise® platform, represents a system-level approach to farming. The launch of X-Terra® is part of a broader shift towards integrating genomics and AI in agriculture, providing more resilient crop options and supporting global food security.
