Weekly Overview: New Technology May Help to Feed the World

2013-01-21 01:00:00| ThePigSite - Industry News

ANALYSIS - Sustainability - in its widest sense - has hit the headlines in the news in the last week. The need for new technology to feed a growing world population has been discussed at a recent conference, and mention was made of the contribution of genetic improvements to achieving that goal. Canada fears for the economic sustainability of its pig industry as it counts the cost of mandatory country of origin labelling on meat in the US. A new report highlights the growing importance of offals and less popular cuts to the global meat industry. Making the best of the food we produce is also part of the sustainability goal.
